Telangana government to set up help desk for youths living in USA

The Telangana government, under the leadership of Chief Minister Revanth Reddy, has announced a proactive measure to support its youth living abroad, particularly in the United States. 

This decision comes in the wake of an unfortunate incident involving Syed Mazhar Ali, a student from Hyderabad who was attacked in Chicago. 

In response to this and other similar incidents, CM Revanth Reddy has expressed his concern and commitment to ensuring the safety and well-being of Telangana's youth overseas.

To address these concerns, the Telangana government is establishing a dedicated help desk aimed at assisting all youth from the state who are residing in the USA and other countries.

This announcement was made by CM Revanth Reddy on February 7th, 2024, and it underscores the Telangana government's resolve to provide a safety net for its global diaspora. 

The Chief Minister's tweet also included a request to the External Affairs Minister to convey the state's concerns and ensure that such incidents are addressed promptly and effectively.
