"pharma-city"

The Bharat Future City project, evolving from the erstwhile Pharma City plan, has sparked debate over its feasibility and long-term implications. Officials suggest its contractual and financial structure could make it difficult for future governments to scrap or alter it.

Farmers under the banner of Pharma City Vyathireka Porata Samithi staged a dharna in Hyderabad demanding repeal of G.O.Ms. 31 and withdrawal of projects involving large-scale acquisition of fertile lands.

BRSLP deputy leader T Harish Rao said BRS would scrap the proposed Future City project and restore Pharma City after returning to power. He accused the Congress government of diverting land meant for pharmaceutical industries towards commercial and real estate activities.

Voluntary organisations and political parties in Telangana have extended support to farmers opposing land acquisition for Pharma City. At an all-party meeting convened by TPJAC, participants demanded a white paper on land use and strict implementation of the Land Acquisition Act, 2013.

The Anti-Pharma City Struggle Committee accused Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy of going back on promises made during his padayatra against Pharma City land acquisition. Farmers protesting Future City development demanded that political leaders offer their own lands first for development projects

BRS working president KT Rama Rao launched a scathing attack on Telangana Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy and the Congress government, accusing them of deceiving farmers and misusing power in municipal elections. He alleged that the Congress was running a “land scam” under the guise of Pharma City and misleading people with promises of “Future City” projects.

The Congress government in Telangana, led by Revanth Reddy, has faced repeated criticism over policy reversals on major projects and land issues. These U-turns have triggered public anger, judicial scrutiny and political backlash, affecting the State’s administrative credibility

BRS president K Chandrashekhar Rao has accused the Congress government of dismantling the Pharma City project and converting it into a real estate venture under the banner of Future City. He alleged that the government was misleading the High Court and the public while attempting to sell Pharma City land parcels to private entities despite judicial restrictions.

Telangana government claimed Rs 5.75 lakh crore in investment commitments at the Global Summit, with major pharma companies seeking large land parcels in the rebranded Green Pharma City—reviving a project the Congress had once declared scrapped

The BRS released a chargesheet accusing the Congress government of two years of failed governance, rising corruption and stalled development. Harish Rao said none of the six guarantees were implemented and claimed welfare, public outreach and investor confidence had sharply deteriorated.

BRS leader K T Rama Rao accused Chief Minister Revanth Reddy of betraying farmers by diverting Hyderabad Pharma City lands for the proposed Future City, warning of agitation if lands are not returned.

Responding to the suicides of realtors, Harish Rao accused the Congress government of hindering Hyderabad's growth, citing its poor governance as a significant barrier to the city's real estate development. He criticized the administration for disregarding warnings from various survey agencies that had highlighted a decline in the sector over the past year and a half.

The Court has set conditions for the bail, including that the petitioner must furnish two sureties of Rs.25,000 each, cooperate with the ongoing investigation, and appear at the police station concerned every Monday.

Under the agreements, MSN Laboratory will establish a manufacturing unit along with a Research & Development (R&D) center. Laurus Labs and Aurobindo Pharma will set up formulation units. Gland Pharma has shown interest in opening an R&D center, as well as manufacturing units for injectables and drug substances. Dr. Reddy's Labs plans to establish a unit for injectables and biosimilars. Hetero Labs will set up a plant for finished dose and injectable manufacturing.
