Telangana is celebrating its fourth formation day today (June 02). The state was formed on this day in 2014 following the bifurcation of Andhra Pradesh.
Chief Minister K Chandrasekhar Rao took salute at a ceremonial parade on the Secunderabad Parade Grounds this morning. The state ministers are taking part in the district-level celebrations.
Areas like power, irrigation, drinking water supply and agriculture have been the prime focus of the Government during the past 4 years.
All government buildings in the Hyderabad and across the state have been decorated to mark the day. Several cultural and social events have been lined up across the state.
Telangana was carved out from the erstwhile Andhra Pradesh as the 29th state in the country, after a long struggle for the statehood on the same day in 2014. Telangana gained fame as one of the fastest growing and surplus state economies in the country.
However, certain areas like employment generation still remained as a point of concern.
Meanwhile, Constitutional buildings, government offices, historical monuments and public places have been decked up beautifully. A number of cultural, sports and social events have been lined up in the state capital Hyderabad and also in districts as part of the celebrations.
