Telangana’s ₹200-Cr Urban Dream: CM Lays NIUM Foundation Stone

Telangana Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy officially initiated the construction of the National Institute of Urban Management (NIUM) campus by laying its foundation stone today. Located on a 20-acre plot provided free of cost by the state government, the ₹200-crore project is slated for completion in June 2028, coinciding with celebrations for Telangana Formation Day.

Designed by Sanjay Puri Architects, the state-of-the-art facility emphasizes eco-friendly design, reserving two-thirds of the total area for green spaces while integrating solar power, rainwater harvesting, and low-carbon materials. Upon completion, the campus will serve as a hub for urban governance education, featuring learning centers for elected representatives and municipal officials, an Urban Living Street, a prototype testing corridor, and 122 residential units to accommodate trainees, research fellows, and visiting domain experts.
