NRIs seek postponement of Global Summit in Telangana 'Water Crisis'

After residents’ welfare associations and other sections, now Telangana NRIs are also raising objections over the conduct of Global Summit to be held next month in Bharat Future City, citing water and power crisis.

They have demanded that the Global Summit 2026 be postponed till drought ends.

To this effect, the Friends of Congress USA and Telangana NRIs for People First have written an open letter to Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy and Congress MP Rahul



Gandhi.

They reminded that the Congress government in Telangana had declared drought in 365 mandals and no water till July 2027. Farmers have been asked not to cultivate paddy in the Yasangi season. These apart, many schools were being closed and hostels were also asking the students to vacate due to water shortage.

In addition to these concerns, the Friends of Congress USA also expressed its worries over the expenditure to conduct the event and negligence towards the farming community.
