Chief Minister of Telangana

Igniting young dreams

In an unprecedented move to empower the youth and shape Telangana’s future, visionary Chief Minister Shri A. Revanth Reddy has launched a series of transformative initiatives seeking to empower the youth of Telangana. Creation of 60,000 government jobs and over 6 lakh private jobs since December 2023 has unlocked the potential of the next generation and aligning them to the State’s bigger aspirations - $3 trillion goal.

From skilling to security, sports to schooling, these welfare initiatives — including Rajiv Yuva Vikasam, Young India Skills University, Young India Police School, Telangana Sports University, and Integrated Schools — reflect the government’s unwavering commitment to inclusive, future-ready development.

Each initiative is designed to create opportunities, build confidence, and equip youngsters in the State with the tools they need to thrive in a competitive world. Under Shri A. Revanth Reddy’s dynamic leadership, Telangana aspires to be the wind beneath the wings of its youth, and support their aspirations, ambitions, and boundless energy.

Rajiv Yuva Vikasam

On March 15, 2025, Shri A. Revanth Reddy took a transformative step towards youth empowerment by launching the Rajiv Yuva Vikasam Scheme. More than a welfare programme, this initiative is a call to action for the youth to “shift from job seekers to job creators”. Focused on entrepreneurship and self-reliance, the scheme provides financial assistance to aspiring entrepreneurs from Below Poverty Line (BPL) families. The support of up to Rs. 3 lakh in financial assistance with subsidies covering 60% to 80% of the loan amount is what makes it truly impressive and commendable. Rajiv Yuva Vikasam is nurturing a new generation of changemakers from the grassroots ready to shape Telangana’s economy in the next decade.

Young India Skills University

Young India Skills University is Telangana’s impressive move to bridge the skill gap between education and industry. Designed to provide the youth with skill sets that make them job-ready, this first-of-its-kind university offers hands-on training in emerging sectors like AI, robotics, logistics, green energy, and advanced manufacturing. With industry partnerships and global standards, the university

  • Emphasises hands-on learning, internships, and certifications to power India's next wave of innovation and productivity
  • Functions as a springboard for young individuals, enabling successful careers, entrepreneurial ventures, financial stability, upward mobility, and self-reliance

Young India Police School

The Young India Police School is Telangana’s pioneering initiative to inspire the next generation of law enforcement professionals. With the launch of this school, Telangana is redefining how young minds connect with public service. Tailored for youth who dream of serving the State and the nation with honour and integrity, the school provides early exposure to policing, public safety, ethics, and leadership. With a modern curriculum that blends physical training with classroom education, the school

  • Fosters discipline, civic responsibility, courage, and grooms future police officers
  • Introduces students to cyber security, forensic science, and community policing
  • Nurtures responsible citizens committed to justice, equality, and national service

Young India Sports University

Telangana’s Sports University is a landmark initiative to turn passion into a profession for aspiring athletes in the State, nurture players and build a culture of ‘sports as a way of life’. With an aim to produce champions both on and off the field, the university offers

  • Specialised courses in sports science, coaching, and management
  • High-performance training across disciplines
  • World-class infrastructure, expert mentors, and global collaborations

From scouting for grassroots talent to developing elite athletes, the university bridges the gap between potential and success. By integrating education with rigorous sports training, it helps youth in academic achievement as well as athletic excellence.

Young India Integrated Schools in Telangana

By initiating the Integrated Schools and transforming the education sector, Telangana has become a role model in ensuring equal access to quality learning for all children, irrespective of socio-economic background. These schools

  • Offer English-medium instruction, residential facilities, digital classrooms, and skill-based curricula — all under one roof
  • Provide students with holistic development, including academics, sports, arts, and life skills

With a focus on inclusive and equitable learning, the Integrated Schools benefit children from the marginalised communities, help them compete on a level playing field and become the engines of opportunity and equity.
