Founded in 1981 by Sri Sri Ravi Shankar, the Art of Living has evolved into a global volunteer organization operating in 182 countries. PM Modi will celebrate both the organization’s anniversary and Sri Sri Ravi Shankar’s 70th birthday.

In Hyderabad, PM Modi will lay the foundation stone, inaugurate, and dedicate several infrastructure and industrial projects aimed at enhancing connectivity, improving logistics, and promoting economic growth.
One of the key projects includes the construction of a four-lane National Highway-167 from Gudebellur to Mahbubnagar along the Hyderabad-Panjim economic corridor, which has a budget of over ₹3,175 crore. This project is expected to reduce travel time by about one and a half hours and improve connectivity between Telangana and Karnataka.
The Prime Minister will also lay the foundation stone for the Zahirabad industrial area in Sangareddy district as part of the Hyderabad-Nagpur industrial corridor development program. This project, covering 3,245 acres, is being developed at a cost of over ₹2,350 crore and is expected to attract investments of around ₹10,000 crore, creating significant employment opportunities.
Additionally, PM Modi will inaugurate the PM Mitra Park in Warangal, also known as the Kakatiya Mega Textile Park.

The Prime Minister will dedicate rail infrastructure projects worth approximately ₹1,535 crore to the nation, including the 118-kilometer Kazipet-Vijayawada multi-tracking project and the Kazipet rail under-bypass project. These initiatives aim to reduce congestion and improve operational efficiency.
