The Congress government in Telangana faces criticism for extravagant spending on global events. While aiming to attract investments and boost Hyderabad’s image, costs have sparked opposition backlash. Upcoming summits and celebrations intensify questions over fiscal prudence amid claims of near bankruptcy.
The two-day summit is being hosted by the Samruddha Bharat Foundation, an organisation backed by the Congress party. Around 450 delegates from various countries were expected to attend and engage in discussions on global justice, equity, and progressive cooperation.
The Samruddha Bharat Foundation is said to have been launched as a counter to the Vivekananda International Foundation, a public policy think tank said to be closely associated with BJP
