Sridhar Babu said on 31 October that the state aims to become a leading electronics manufacturing destination. Inaugurating a Mivi facility near Hyderabad, he noted the manufacturing sector grew 7.7% in 2025-26 and contributed Rs 1.37 lakh crore to the state's Gross State Value Added. The facility, built with a Rs 200 crore investment by Avishakaran Industries, has a monthly capacity of 5 lakh earbuds and 75,000 soundbars and employs around 2,500 people. The minister said the government is working to strengthen electronics clusters and hardware parks under the Telangana Rising-2047 vision, and aims to expand into chip design, semiconductor manufacturing, and component production. ## Indian Opinion Analysis Coverage of the event is uniform across all three outlets, with no discernible framing differences.
