My Journey of Education:

On June 5th, 1973, I was born in the village of Amanagal, located in the Warangal district of Telangana. My parents, Venkatayya and Kamalamma, had an enormous influence on my early life. I began my academic journey in Amanagal, Mahabubabad, developed in high school in Manukota, and finished my intermediate education at SSC Junior College in Manukota. I attended Warangal Adarsh College for my undergraduate studies and continued my education at Osmania University in Hyderabad. I acquired my MA and LLM degrees at this institution, which improved my educational background. In addition, I earned my LLB from Warangal, which displays my commitment to the profession of law studies.

My Family Background:

Throughout my defined political career, I deeply value my humble beginnings and am grateful for the unconditional backing of my parents, Mr. and Mrs. Bonthu Venkatayya. I credit my achievements to the divine blessings and the constant encouragement and affection from my loved ones. During my college days, destiny brought me together with Bonthu Sridevi, and on the 7th of February 2004, we began our journey of marriage.

Our family, fortunate to have two daughters, Kujitha and Ushasri, who are currently in secondary school, represents a harmonious balance between personal and public life.

EARLY CAREER IN STUDENT POLITICS

My Path from ABVP to BRS:

During my time at Osmania University, I played a prominent role in student politics, taking on leadership responsibilities within the Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad (ABVP). Throughout my tenure, I continually showed a strong dedication to encouraging participation by students and supporting their rights. I had the privilege of serving as a member of ABVP from 1995 to 2002, where I actively worked towards resolving important student concerns such as Fee Reimbursement, College Seat Allotment, and College Scholarships. My time at Osmania University played a crucial role in shaping my political career and developing in me a strong sense of dedication to leadership and community service.

I joined the Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) Party after a pivotal decision I had previously expressed as a supporter of the ABVP. I started my journey within the party by serving as the General Secretary of the Telangana Rashtra Samithi Vidyarthi Vibhag (TRSV) from 2003 to 2005.

LEADERSHIP IN PONDS REVITALIZATION, PUBLIC HEALTH, AND URBAN DEVELOPMENT

During my tenure as Mayor, I initiated efforts to improve and protect our city’s ponds. At the Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation (GHMC), we dedicated substantial resources to enhance the aesthetic appeal of these important water bodies and prioritize the welfare of our residents. With a focus on public health, I took charge of implementing measures like anti-larvae spraying and fogging to control mosquito growth. Our goal was to tackle the accumulation of material and garbage in the ponds, creating a cleaner and healthier environment. Additionally, I developed plans for the gradual development of 185 ponds throughout the city.

To tackle the issue of mosquito breeding, I devised a well-planned approach that involved the use of advanced machinery to eliminate stagnant water from 39 targeted ponds. Additionally, drones were utilized to effectively spray anti-larvae substances, while disinfectants were applied to ensure the hygiene of the pond surroundings. A comprehensive anti-larvae and pesticide spraying campaign was carried out across 235 colonies and 39 ponds, with extra precautions taken in water storage areas and canals to prevent the spread of malaria.

In an impressive endeavor to promote environmental equilibrium, a significant number of Gambusia fish fry and oil balls were introduced into canals and ponds. Under my leadership, the GHMC efficiently mobilized a dedicated team equipped with advanced sprayers and fogging machines to carry out extensive operations across the city. Additionally, officials actively distributed informative leaflets and stickers to raise awareness about preventing diseases such as dengue, malaria, chickenpox, filaria, encephalitis, and COVID-19.

I have taken proactive measures to establish lake protection forces in order to prevent encroachments, prioritize the welfare of residents, preserve the environment, and create visually appealing urban spaces. This demonstrates my strong commitment to protecting the city’s ponds. Moving on to another important aspect, a significant amount of Rs. 298 crores was allocated for 472 essential projects aimed at addressing tax-related challenges in the city.

PUBLIC RESTROOMS FOR PUBLIC CONVENIENCE

Elevating City Life Through Sanitation Innovation

In our commitment to creating a city that puts its citizens first, the Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation (GHMC) places a high priority on public convenience. We have taken the initiative to strategically construct public toilets in densely populated areas, recognizing the importance of accessible facilities. Our proactive approach ensures that these conveniences are not only available at government sites, but also at 316 petrol stations and major hotels throughout the city.

With a vision of a Hyderabad without traffic signals, this plan includes the construction of flyovers, underpasses, and corridors. Despite the coordination challenges, our government is committed to expediting the SRDP projects.

The lockdown period presented a favorable opportunity for a surge in construction activities, taking advantage of the reduced road traffic. Under my leadership, substantial advancements have been achieved. Our dedication to enhancing infrastructure and establishing a streamlined transportation system for the betterment of Hyderabad’s residents remains unwavering. The silver lining of the lockdown was the expedited progress in construction activities due to the absence of heavy traffic. With my leadership, the government is dedicated to improving infrastructure and creating a smooth transportation system.

REVITALIZING CHERLAPALLY DIVISION:

Cherlapally Division thrives, transforming lives with the development

During my time as the Mayor of GHMC, the Cherlapally Division has experienced significant advancements, particularly in terms of infrastructure development. Over the past five years, a substantial amount of Rs.200 crore has been allocated to various developmental projects, demonstrating a strong commitment to the overall growth of the community. Prior to the 2016 GHMC elections, Cherlapally Division faced numerous challenges, such as deteriorating pipelines, drainage systems, and roads in around 40 colonies. Prompt and well-informed action was taken to address healthcare needs, resulting in the establishment of two basti dispensaries and a primary health center. This initiative received widespread acclaim for effectively meeting the medical requirements of both residents and workers.

Since assuming the role of corporator, the Cherlapally Division has undergone a significant transformation with an investment of approximately Rs.200 crores. Initiatives such as the development of drainage systems and roads worth Rs.65 crores, the implementation of fresh water pipelines costing Rs.25 crores, and the resolution of fresh water supply challenges have significantly improved the living conditions. The installation of overhead tanks in Charlapalli Bharat Nagar and Indira Griha Kalpa, with a budget of Rs.3 crores, has particularly enhanced water supply connectivity in the locality. Our commitment to enhancing the quality of life in Cherlapally Division is evident in the creation of eight parks, with an investment of around Rs.80 lakh. These green spaces not only add to the aesthetic appeal of the area but also promote a healthy and active lifestyle for residents. Additionally, plans for three theme parks, with a budget of Rs.10 crores, are underway, aiming to provide a well-rounded recreational experience for the entire community.

Our developmental efforts in Cherlapally Division have focused on providing sufficient housing and community infrastructure. We have successfully completed thousands of double-bedroom houses within the division, as well as in Rampally Bandla Guda and Sai Ram Nagar, to support those facing economic challenges. Moving forward, we have plans to construct community buildings in different colonies, establish a small function hall in Grihakalpa and Indira Colonies, and create a comprehensive bus transport system connecting Cherlapally to various parts of the city. Our commitment to the holistic development of the community is further demonstrated through educational initiatives, such as the establishment of a primary junior college and an IT college.

A sophisticated initiative, Vaikuntha Dham, covering a vast area of five acres, is currently in the planning phase to enrich the cultural and spiritual aspects of the region. Efforts to modernize crematoriums and graveyards, with the aim of offering dignified final resting places, are also in progress. Notably, funds from the Chief Minister’s relief fund have been allocated to assist around one hundred individuals in our division. Under my leadership, the GHMC has successfully constructed and upgraded 24 funeral homes in the past five years, ensuring they adhere to the highest standards. Through partnerships with private organizations, state-of-the-art crematoriums like Mahaprasthanam in Rayadurg have been established, providing a wide range of amenities for a comfortable experience.

These modern crematoriums, developed through GHMC funds and corporate social responsibility initiatives, provide a range of services to ensure a dignified and contemporary experience for end-of-life ceremonies. These services include protective walls, cremation platforms, prayer rooms, waiting areas, seating galleries, parking facilities, walkways, office spaces, wash areas, electrification, and landscaping.
