Telangana Sets Up Helpline Amid Middle East Tensions

In response to increasing geopolitical tensions and military developments in the Middle East, particularly involving Iran and Israel, the Telangana government has launched a dedicated helpline. This measure follows instructions from Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy and is aimed primarily at assisting Telangana residents who might be impacted.

A statement from the government noted that this initiative is designed to address concerns from Telangana residents who are currently in or traveling through the affected regions. The helpline has been set up at Telangana Bhavan in the national capital to provide quick responses and support.

According to the latest updates from Indian Embassies and the Ministry of External Affairs, there have been no reports of Telangana citizens being directly affected so far. Nevertheless, the helpline remains available to offer guidance, gather information, and assist families and individuals seeking help or wishing to report situations of concern.
