In Hyderabad, Jayesh Ranjan, the Tourism and Culture Special Chief Secretary, stressed the importance of having a clear and timely plan to turn ideas into real results.
He promised that each project will have specific timelines and execution plans, showing the government’s dedication to real progress. Jayesh Ranjan spoke at two meetings organized by the Telangana Government to promote MICE (Meetings, Incentives, Conferences, and Exhibitions) and Film Tourism in the region. He mentioned that feedback from these meetings will shape a final action plan, expected to be revealed by the end of August or on World Tourism Day on September 27, 2025.
A meeting focused on MICE sectors aimed to transform Telangana into a leading MICE Tourism Hub. About 40 key stakeholders from event venues, travel, hospitality, airport, and event management sectors participated to discuss a strategic roadmap. Regional Passport Officer Snehaja and Tourism Development Corporation MD Valluru Kranthi also joined to discuss practical steps.
Jayesh Ranjan held another meeting on Film Tourism at the National Institute of Tourism and Hospitality Management in Gachibowli with Dil Raju, Chairman of the Telangana Film Development Corporation. Around 20 delegates from the Telugu Film Chambers of Commerce, film studios, and government departments like Forest, Endowments, and Heritage Telangana attended. They explored ideas to make Telangana an attractive and cost-effective filming destination for local and international filmmakers.
An action plan will be drafted from these discussions, featuring the creation of a ‘Film in Telangana’ Portal. This portal will serve as a one-stop solution for all film shooting needs through a single-window system.
