IT parks in 7 cities planned

HYDERABAD: Apart from IT parks, institutions of excellence, research laboratories and townships will be set up in Visakhapatnam, Vijayawada, Tirupati, Kurnool, Guntur, Warangal and Nellore, on the lines of those developed here.
This decision was taken by Chief Minister Y. S. Rajasekhara Reddy here on Saturday while reviewing the projects/works being executed to develop and further modernise Hyderabad and other urban areas.
He approved plans to construct world class townships around the city, as sought by HUDA. The plans aim at developing Hyderabad as world class city with air links within the country and outside, but also with important district headquarters.
A sum of Rs. 28,000 crore is to be spent in the next few years through the Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation, HUDA and Hyderabad Metro Water Supply & Sewerage Board to change the face of the city. The Chief Minister spoke of the need to provide residential/recreational facilities, schools and hospitals close to Hitec City and other software companies at Madhapur
