Great initiative but hope this doesn't become another committee that just gives reports and nothing happens on ground. We need action, not just vision documents. The inclusion of farmers' welfare is crucial for Telangana's real development.

Trillion-dollar economy by 2047? Ambitious but achievable if we get the implementation right. The climate resilience focus is much needed given our water challenges in Telangana. Hope they involve local experts too, not just international names.
