Hyderabad: A colourful tapestry of State handloom, art and craft, games, and special culinary expo will replace the bustling road traffic in the hot weather on Tank Bund on Saturday and Sunday, to celebrate the 10 years of Telangana State Formation.
From fireworks, special laser shows and cultural events, to folk art from various districts, and a host of Ministers and leaders led by Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy, would make Tank Bund and its ambient design nearly another spectacle.
Chief Minister Revanth Reddy extended his heartfelt greetings to the people of Telangana on the occasion of State Formation Day on June 2 and remembered the sacrifices of the martyrs who laid down their lives during the struggle for statehood.
He congratulated all the poets, artists, students, teachers, employees, intellectuals, journalists, lawyers, workers, farmers, women and political leaders, who had actively participated in the Telangana movement over the years. He reiterated that the State government is committed to rebuilding Telangana in tune with the hopes and aspirations of people.
According to officials, a march with the national flag, as the new State song ‘Jaya Jaya he Telangana’ will be played, would stand out as an iconic event of the day. Artistes on the celebration route will also showcase the classical Janapada and Deccani culture.
While June 2 (Sunday) marks a special day, officials are making arrangements for the various stalls on Tank Bund to be open for visitors from Saturday onwards.
The State Formation Day events, will however, begin at Parade Grounds, Secunderabad, starting in the forenoon. The official presentation by the State executive, with the attendance of special guests and invitees, is being made in an elaborate manner.
CM Revanth described June 2 this year as the most important day and said the complete liberation of Telangana state has been achieved. He observed that Hyderabad, which was common capital of Andhra Pradesh and Telangana as per the AP Reorganization Act, will be the sole capital of Telangana from now onwards.
