Hyderabad: Telangana has emerged as the address of “growth with values” and a role model for ethical and sustainable industrial development, Industries Minister Duddilla Sridhar Babu said on Friday.
At the inaugural session of JITO Connect 2025 at HITEX–HICC, he invited entrepreneurs to invest in Telangana. According to him, the state is one of the most conducive destinations for industrial growth in India.
The Jain International Trade Organization’s Hyderabad Chapter hosted the three-day conclave. Defence Minister Rajnath Singh, Union Minister G. Kishan Reddy, and Sridhar Babu jointly inaugurated the event.

Sridhar Babu noted that industrialists now value ethics and inclusivity more than incentives. “Telangana is not waiting for the future — it is building the future,” he said. Furthermore, he stressed that the state had strong policies, robust infrastructure, and investor-friendly governance.
He urged business leaders to see Telangana before choosing other states. In his view, the state’s innovation ecosystem and efficient administration would convince them. Moreover, he suggested that combining Jain community values with Telangana’s innovation could create a global model of ethical growth.
“The real unicorn is not a company valued at a billion dollars, but one that touches a billion lives,” he said. He also encouraged young entrepreneurs to focus on socially meaningful innovation.
Besides political leaders, Yoga mentor Baba Ramdev attended the event. BJP State President Ramchander Rao and JITO leaders Rohit Kothari, Lalit Chopra, Vishal Anchalia, B.L. Bhandari, and Sushil were also present.
