Thriving industry shapes stronger economy, empowered society, says Telangana Governor

Governor Jishnu Dev Varma on Tuesday stressed the importance of pursuing excellence. 'Excellence is not an act or habit. It is a mindset and a way of thinking,' he said, presenting FTCCI Excellence Awards 2025 at a function organised here by the Federation of Telangana Chambers of Commerce and Industry (FTCCI) here. The awards recognise exceptional achievements across 19 categories spanning industry, innovation, CSR, healthcare, science and entrepreneurship. Applauding FTCCI's contribution to Telangana's industrial ecosystem, said, 'A thriving industry shapes a stronger economy and an empowered society. Telangana stands tall today as a progressive industrial State.' The Governor urged the audience to dream big. 'As [Reliance Group founder] Dhirubhai Ambani said think big, think fast, think ahead. And as [Infosys co-founder] N.R. Narayana Murthy believes — performance leads to recognition, recognition to respect, and respect to power. But humility remains the greatest mantra for success,' he said. Addressing the gathering, Director of Industries Nikhil Chakravarthi highlighted Telangana's industrial leadership. He urged industries to leverage new initiatives of the government such as the Digital Employment Exchange and the labour training platform. FTCCI president Suresh Kumar Singhal said the awards recognise leaders who fuel Telangana's economic engine. Established in 1974, the awards promote innovation, quality, entrepreneurship and sustainable growth. Over the past five decades, they have become a hallmark of excellence in the region. Awards Committee chair Ramakanth Inani said, 'The recognitions shine a light on transformative contributions by both organisations and individuals.' Members of the jury Justice Challa Kodanda Ram, former IAS officers M. Gopal Krishna, Ajay Mishra and B.P. Acharya and former director of IIT-Hyderabad Uday B. Desai were felcitiated. FTCCI senior vice-president R. Ravi Kumar spoke.
