CM Revanth Reddy Narrowly Escapes Mishap as Secretariat Slabs Collapse Again
Hyderabad, July 25, 2025 (Maxim News): In a shocking incident, Telangana Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy narrowly escaped a major mishap after slabs from the newly built Secretariat building collapsed—once again raising serious questions about the quality of its construction.
According to officials, the concrete slabs fell onto the road used by the Chief Minister’s convoy. Fortunately, no one was present at the exact spot when the collapse occurred, averting a potentially catastrophic accident involving the CM and several ministers.
Slab Collapse Raises Alarm Over Construction Quality
This is not the first time structural faults have been reported in the Secretariat building. In earlier instances, slabs from the 5th floor had also collapsed, triggering alarm among government staff and the public.
Sources confirmed that CM Revanth Reddy was away on an official visit to Delhi when the latest incident occurred. Many observers believe that if he had been at the location at the time, the consequences could have been far worse.
Secretariat Safety Under Scrutiny
The repeated structural failures have intensified criticism over the quality of construction and the transparency of the project’s execution. Employees working in the Secretariat are now growing increasingly anxious, especially with the onset of the monsoon season.
“There is growing fear among us about what might happen during heavy rains,” said one Secretariat employee who preferred to remain anonymous. “The government must take immediate steps to inspect the entire building and ensure it’s safe.”
Calls for Action
Opposition leaders and public safety advocates are demanding an urgent structural audit of the building and a transparent investigation into the construction contracts and quality control processes.
Citizens and staff alike are urging the government to act swiftly, warning that repeated negligence could one day lead to loss of lives.
With the Secretariat being the nerve center of Telangana’s administration, the government now faces pressure not only to fix the structural issues but also to restore public trust in its infrastructure decisions.
