Telangana Transport and Backward Classes Minister Ponnam Prabhakar said proposals have been sent to set up two Jawahar Navodaya Vidyalayas, one at Bheemadevarapally in Hanumakonda district and the other in Rajanna Sircilla district.

Mr. Prabhakar along with Union Home Minister Bandi Sanjay Kumar on Monday (November 26, 2026) laid the foundation stones for various development works initiated under Urban Infrastructure Development Fund (UIDF) and Municipal General Funds (MGF) in Divisions 23, 25, 26 and 46 of Karimnagar Municipal Corporation.

Mr. Prabhakar later emphasized in the media the need to put aside politics after the elections and focus collectively on development irrespective of political affiliation.

He urged all stakeholders to work together to ensure that the erstwhile undivided Karimnagar district remains at the forefront of development across all sectors. The minister stated that the highest priority is education, healthcare and infrastructure development. He said that announcements have been made for the establishment of Kendriya Vidyalayas at Jammikunta and Husnabad.

He added that opportunities to study LLB, LLM and higher courses in pharmacy and engineering have opened up in the region.

Regarding the rapid urbanization of Karimnagar city, Mr. Prabhakar said that urban development is the priority. He also said that efforts are underway to build major temples at Kondagattu, Vemulawada, Dharmapuri, Kaleswaram and Kothakonda with a focus on improving the facilities for pilgrims.
