IndiaThe Telangana government has announced a plan to involve private sector entities in the development of 11 historic forts across the state through a Public-Private Partnership (PPP) model. The initiative aims to convert these heritage sites into sustainable tourism destinations while preserving their historical integrity. The forts include notable structures such as Medak Fort, which features ancient architectural elements like a water-supply system and a Qutb Shahi-era mosque. The Tourism Directorate issued a call for expressions of interest (EOI) from qualified private investors, with deadlines set for August 27 and further steps scheduled for early September. The state’s Department of Heritage will support conservation efforts, while the Tourism Directorate will oversee tourism development and project implementation.
