Hyderabad: Telangana is set to host the 72nd edition of the Miss World contest, with events planned across various culturally significant locations in the state. Announcing this, Telangana Tourism Minister Jupally Krishna Rao emphasized that the prestigious international pageant will help drive economic growth by boosting tourism and attracting global visitors.

Rao also acknowledged concerns about the state’s financial situation, echoing former Minister K.T. Rama Rao’s (KTR) statement on Telangana's economic challenges. He accused the previous BRS government of pushing the state into financial distress, stating, “BRS has driven the state into a debt trap. To address this issue, we need to generate revenue. This is an opportunity to boost revenue by promoting tourism and attracting international visitors.”

The Miss World 2025 pageant is expected to feature participants from around 140 countries, providing Telangana with a global platform to showcase its cultural heritage and tourism potential. The state government is optimistic that the event will not only enhance its international image but also contribute significantly to economic revival efforts.
