Telangana region part of the princely state of Hyderabad had witnessed impressive growth.Growth & development continued in the early years of the post-independence phase also. richly evidenced by the progress of many industries like Singareni Collieries,DBR Mills,VST,AZamjahi Mills,Praga Tools,Allwayn,VST,Sirpur Paper Mills,Hyderabad
Asberstos,Sirsilk,Nizam Sugar Factory etc..,several PSUs employing thousands of people were closed on insubstantial grounds.
After the formation of Andra Pradesh in 1956, the industrial development in Telangana started declining due to the discriminatory policies of the rulers. Telangana Industrialists were deprived of access to correct information and policies such as industrial policies,incentives,schemes,by partisan official in various industry related departments such as APSFC,APIDC,APIIC,DIC etc.., A surreptitious campaign that telangana people are lethargic and incapable of piloting businesses was instigated and launched.
