Musi river which flows through Hyderabad and the surrounding districts has a long and illustrious history. We have put in place an action plan not only to clean Musi River but also to develop its catchment area as an employment generation region. We are taking immediate measures to revive Musi River, clean it and develop its riverfront.
Chief Minister Revanth Reddy during his recent visit to London paid a visit to River Thames Front and met the officials there to examine the functioning of the Thames River Front. Our government aims to take up integrated development of Musi River on those lines.
In this regard, the Chief Minister held discussions with British Commissioner Alexander Ellis and Sri Suman Berry, vice chairman of Niti Aayog.
