Telangana Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy met with Union Minister for Agriculture and Rural Development Shivraj Singh Chouhan on July 28, 2026, to seek the allocation of 11.56 lakh houses under the Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana (Gramin) 2.0. The Chief Minister highlighted the neglect of rural housing construction during the previous Bharatiya Janata Party (Bharat Rashtra Samithi) government's tenure and emphasized the need for increased support from the Centre to address the housing requirements of rural families.

Reddy also proposed expanding the scope of works under the Viksit Bharat – Guarantee for Rozgar and Ajeevika Mission (Gramin) programme, suggesting 10 additional initiatives to improve livelihoods and strengthen rural incomes, including vegetable trellis development, fodder plots, and silkworm-rearing sheds.
