ASBL Shares the Stage with CM Revanth Reddy at Way2News Conclave on Hyderabad's Real Estate Future

A brand new 30,000-acre city. Three bullet trains. A trillion-dollar economy by 2034. That is the kind of Hyderabad, Chief Minister Revanth Reddy is building and he laid it all out, in plain words, at the Way2News Conclave this week.   Ajitesh Korupolu, CEO and founder of ASBL with CM Revanth Reddy at Way2News conclave Top political leaders, policy makers, and creators gathered to map out the state's future. Right at the centre of the conversation was ASBL, a key part of the conclave from start to finish, joining the panel discussions, backing the event's vision, and standing out as one of the strongest voices on Hyderabad's growth story. By the close of the evening, ASBL was also awarded with ' Most Innovative Builder of the Decade .' But the spotlight, fittingly, stayed on the CM, who used the stage to lay out exactly where Telangana is heading. On Hyderabad's real estate, the CM spoke with absolute confidence. He made it clear that while the market has shown a lot of progress, it has barely scratched the surface of its true potential. The city is ready to move at a much faster pace. While global shifts like changing economies or the rise of AI are altering how people work and live, Hyderabad is built to handle it. Over the last seven years, the city's real estate has only moved upward, a fact strongly backed by official reports from the CAG, NITI Aayog, and the GST department. For the CM, this past growth is just a small preview; the real story is the massive, untapped future that Hyderabad is now ready to unlock. When asked about the apparent slowdown in the current real estate market and investments, the CM addressed the online noise directly. He stated simply " people putting investment into propaganda, writing lies themselves and believing them ." Pointing to the Financial District, he said, the area has become a major global hub because the government focused on providing top-tier infrastructure, allowing private builders to do what they do best and creating a space where top global companies want to invest. Today, nearly 10 lakh people work there. Highlighting the incredible demand in the micro-market, he noted that land in nearby Raidurg's Knowledge Park recently sold for a record INR 184 crore per acre. The lesson, he said, is simple: the government’s core job is to deliver excellent foundational infrastructure like the metro, high-speed highways, and seamless airport connectivity, which gives investors and builders the confidence to develop the city. Bharat Future City, his boldest move, the CM spoke about a brand new 30,000-acre city coming up near Hyderabad. No Indian state, he said, has tried building a full new city at this scale. Earlier projects like the Financial District were just 400 to 500 acres. Future City, he believes, can stand alongside New York, Tokyo, and Singapore. On connectivity, the plans are big. A 12-lane expressway and rail line will link Future City to Machilipatnam port, located on the coast of the Bay of Bengal. And of the seven new bullet trains being rolled out by the Centre, three are coming to Telangana with Hyderabad as the hub, linking Hyderabad to Bengaluru, Chennai, and Mumbai. The bigger picture stayed with him throughout. Telangana has just 3% of India's population but already contributes 5% of GDP. He wants that to double to 10%, and push the state's economy past USD 1 trillion by 2034. Hyderabad and the real estate ecosystem around it sits right at the centre of that push. ASBL strongly shares this forward-thinking vision for Hyderabad and has been actively contributing to the city's development. While the government builds the master infrastructure, ASBL focuses on building the actual spaces that match this high-growth future. Today, ASBL operates 10 million square feet of space with another 10 million in the pipeline, ensuring that as Hyderabad grows toward its trillion-dollar future, ASBL is right there building it. By bringing both new-age construction and sharp thought leadership to the table, ASBL's presence at the conclave showed exactly why it is leading the way in shaping how the city lives and grows.   www.asbl.in .

ASBL Awarded as 'Most Innovative Builder of the Decade' at the Way2News Conclave 2026

What will Telangana look like ten years from now? This was the big question at the Way2News Conclave 2026, held on May 15 at the JRC Convention & Trade Fairs in Jubilee Hills. Top political leaders, policy makers, and creators gathered to map out the state's future. ASBL, a real estate developer was awarded with " Most Innovative Builder of the Decade ”. The landmark conclave featured visionary future insights from Telangana Chief Minister Anumula Revanth Reddy, Union Minister G. Kishan Reddy, and several other key leaders.    Ajitesh Korupolu, CEO and founder of ASBL in a panel discussion at Way2News conclave During a panel discussion on economy and business strategies, ASBL Founder and CEO , Ajitesh Korupolu , shared a highly optimistic vision for the city, praising the Way2News team for hosting the event and highlighting why Hyderabad is uniquely positioned for greatness. Korupolu further emphasized the immense multiplier effect of the sector, noting that real estate drives the entire economy forward through its linkages with over 250 ancillary industries including cement, steel, logistics, and retail, while acting as India's second-largest employer. " Hyderabad is one of the rarest cities in India because we don't depend on just one industry ," Korupolu noted during the panel. " We have IT, pharma, aerospace, defense tech, and data centers. In fact, 47% of all new Global Capability Centers (GCCs) coming to India are choosing Hyderabad. With the government’s excellent model of building infrastructure first and allowing development to follow, Hyderabad is well on its way to becoming the deep tech capital of India ."   He highlighted that the growth in Hyderabad's suburban and outer areas is a great example of smart planning. The government builds consistent infrastructure first, and there is plenty of land and water available. By introducing policies gradually instead of all at once, the state avoids sudden market shocks, creating a stable, long-term environment where both builders and home buyers can thrive. This forward-thinking perspective aligns perfectly with why ASBL, a prominent real estate developer in Hyderabad, received the decade's top innovation title. The company was recognized for its work in changing how homes are designed, built, and managed. In a traditional real estate landscape, developers often operate in a blind spot, severely lacking the data and consumer insights needed to actually improve the living experience. Recognizing this critical gap, ASBL shifted the paradigm by operating less like a conventional builder and more like a technology company that happens to do real estate. By embedding technology into every single stage of the process, the company captures vital data that allows them to address current pain points and proactively design spaces so that future residents don't face these everyday problems. This customer-first mindset, backed by heavy use of data and artificial intelligence (AI), is precisely what earned them the decade’s top innovation title. ASBL collects and analyzes data to understand the real daily challenges people face and use those insights to design layouts that genuinely make life easier. To tackle the construction problems, they created a "Digital Twin" system where every building is mapped out digitally first, allowing teams to assign tasks clearly and upload proof of work in real-time to keep construction fast, on time, and high quality. Finally, they ensure a smooth buying and living experience by completely digitizing the paperwork process, making it incredibly simple for anyone, including NRIs living abroad, to buy a home without endless physical visits. Once residents move in, they use the Homes by ASBL app to effortlessly manage daily chores, book amenities, and raise service requests. This tech-forward strategy is already working at a massive scale. ASBL is currently operating 10 million square feet of space, with another 10 million square feet already in the pipeline, deeply focusing on the growth of Hyderabad. By bringing both cutting-edge technology to construction and thought leadership to the state's economic conversations, ASBL's prominent presence at the conclave proved exactly why they are leading the way in shaping how the city lives and grows.   asbl.in .

South India, now, needs to be on an extra-active radar of RSS & BJP!

This scenario needs a major strategic planning within the BJP-RSS for the future course of time, so that things move positively in favour of the BJP and the RSS ideology ASHWANI KUMAR CHRUNGOO FRAGRANCE OF IDEAS Consequent upon the declaration of the results of the five state elections in eastern and southern parts of India recently, it has becomecustomary to analyse the overall political scenario of the southern region, especially the two states, namelyTamil Nadu and Kerala. This is particularly so because these two states have given contrasting results as compared to the results of the two eastern states, i.e. Assam and West Bengal. While Assam and West Bengal gave sweeping results in favour of the Bharatiya Janta Party (BJP), the two states of Kerala and Tamil Nadu have a story altogether different from the other two states. The results of the Union Territory of Puducherry have maintained the status quo and need no special mention here in this write-up. The southern states, excepting Karnataka and to some extent Telangana, have a lukewarm history of the BJPs presence. There is no doubt that the RSS started its activity in the southern region well before the partition of the country, but it gained momentum only in the 1960s and 1970s. Yadav Rao Joshi was a prominent senior RSS activist-pracharak who infused new blood in the organisational structure of RSS in the southern states. His headquarters was in Bangalore from the very inception, so Karnataka got an edge so far as the organisational expansion was concerned. On the basis of the strength of the RSS organisation in Karnataka, Joshi planned the expansion of the organisation in other southern states as well. In the 1960s and 1970s, most of the southern states were deeply influenced by the South film industry mania, Dravidian politics, left-oriented ideological leanings and also by the language and regional priorities. Congress had started losing ground in the entire southern region slowly and steadily, and the regional forces and the left parties filled up the vacuum created by the Congresss absenteeism. This kind of situation had deeply impacted the socio-political scenario of the entire southern region. It was in this kind of an adverse atmosphere that RSS, under the stewardship of Joshi, made attempts to extend its arms in the southern states. There is no doubt in the fact that Karnataka proved to be a better fertile ground as compared to the other states in the southern region. Joshi was joined by another senior RSS pracharak, H.V.Sheshadri (who later became the Secretary General of RSS), and they, along with the other scores of pracharaks and dedicated activists, created a great edifice for RSS to grow at a rapid speed in the Karnataka state. The strength gained by RSS helped the Bhartiya Jan Sangh (BJS) initially and later the BJP to take their roots deep down the earth. This created the BJP as a force to be reckoned with in the state of Karnataka in the 1980s and 1990s, and it made the BJP the main political pillar of the state politics eventually. Technically speaking, it was Jagan Nath Rao Joshi, a senior BJS-BJP leader, who planned the BJPs expansion in the southern states with great success. However, this sort of privilege, as in Karnataka, couldnt be achieved or enjoyed by the RSS and BJP in the other states. Due to the immense work done by the thousands of activists of the two organisations in these states and also the sacrifices made by the hundreds of activists, especially in the state of Kerala, the RSS and BJP made moderate inroads in the society therein. Slowly and steadily, both these organisations started to make major inroads in the 1990s, but these inroads couldnt make the BJP the main political force in any state other than Karnataka. Over the years from the 1990s to 2010s, the BJP was able to emerge as a big political force in the states of Telangana, Kerala, Andhra Pradesh, Pudduchery and Tamil Nadu. In Telangana, the BJP took the position of a major political quarter in the state, and has been able to catch votes to the tune of around 35% in the state. In Kerala also, the party has achieved 10% plus votes consistently for the last twenty years now. Even in the state of Tamil Nadu, the BJP was able to get 11% votes in the 2024 Lok Sabha elections. In Andhra Pradesh, it is in a formidable coalition with the TDP and the Janasena Party of Pawan Kalyan and is in a comfortable political position in the given situation. The way the election results came forth in Kerala and Tamil Nadu this time, it should bring all key figures in the BJP and RSS in the southern region to the main round-table to chalk out a plan to make sure that the BJP emerges as a bigger political force in the next round of elections. RSSs role is the master key in this whole arrangement. It can make the socio-cultural ground in these states more fertile by its groundwork so that the ideology and appeal of the BJP is welcome, particularly in two social groups, i.e. youth & women. These should be hence the target areas for both the RSS and the BJP. There is a visible impact of the BJPs immense victory and performances post 2024 Lok Sabha elections on the minds and intellect of the people of the country, in general and the youth in particular. For some years now, the participation of women in the political and electoral processes has increased in a profound manner, thanks to various welfare schemes of the government of India, especially designed for women and the youth. People in general, in the current socio-political scenario, recognise the fact with a welcome note that the BJP is now having power in most of the states of India, besides having it also at the centre. More than 70% of the population and area of the nation comes under
