Nalgonda: Roads and buildings minister Komatireddy Venkat Reddy on Saturday announced that the tender process for the northern part of the Regional Ring Road (RRR) will begin within the next two months, with works expected to start by January 2026. He criticised the previous BRS government for neglecting the project despite the Centre’s approval in 2017–18. “When I assumed charge, only six per cent of the land acquisition for the RRR had been completed. Komatireddy said the original four-lane RRR has been redesigned as a six-lane road to accommodate the projected traffic growth by 2035. A total of ₹6,000 crore has been earmarked for land acquisition, with costs shared equally between the state and the Centre.
