Major decisions

[edit]

On the day of Reddy's swearing-in, the iron barricades at the entrance to the chief minister's office were removed. Reddy announced his availability at the office to listen to people's grievances daily from 8 December 2023, reflecting the promise of people's government.[10]

Another promise was fulfilled on 9 December 2023, when free bus rides for women were announced by the Telangana Government.[11]

The Telangana state government has donated Rs 3 crore to the Tablighi Jamaat[12] and the Telangana State High Court has issued a notice for doing so.[13]
