Good governance is essential for fostering transparency, accountability, and inclusivity in public administration. In Telangana, since its formation in 2014, the state has implemented innovative governance practices and targeted development policies to address the socio-economic needs of its population. This study examines key initiatives and their impact on Telangana's progress, focusing on citizen-centric governance and sustainable development. The state has leveraged digital platforms like MeeSeva and T-App Folio to streamline service delivery and minimize bureaucratic inefficiencies, enhancing transparency and accessibility. Rural and urban development programmes, such as Palle Pragathi and Pattana Pragathi, have addressed infrastructure gaps, improved sanitation, and promoted environmental conservation. Welfare schemes like Dalit Bandhu, Mission Bhagiratha, and Mission Kakatiya have empowered marginalized communities, ensured water security, and rejuvenated rural livelihoods. These initiatives have led to significant improvements in living standards, infrastructure, and socio-economic equity. However, challenges such as resource constraints, capacity limitations, and societal resistance to change persist. Despite these barriers, the state has demonstrated the potential of participatory and technology-driven governance in fostering inclusive growth. This study highlights the transformative role of good governance in Telangana and provides insights into its success and challenges. By addressing existing limitations and building on its achievements, Telangana can serve as a model for other regions aiming to balance development with equity and sustainability. This research underscores the importance of strengthening institutional frameworks, promoting community participation, and leveraging technology to advance governance outcomes. In doing so, Telangana continues to set benchmarks in citizen-centric administration and sustainable development, reflecting the principles of good governance in practice.
