Miss World 2025 entrants spent Sunday discovering Telangana’s flagship public‑safety systems and soaking up local heritage.
- Escorted arrival – A mounted‑police convoy ushered 107 contestants to the Telangana Police Integrated Command‑and‑Control Centre (TGICCC) in Hyderabad, where a pipe‑band salute and agile K‑9 display set an impressive tone.
- Tech in action – Inside the glass‑walled nerve‑centre, officers demonstrated how AI analytics, citywide cameras and real‑time data streams converge to spot incidents, dispatch teams and keep residents secure. An armoury exhibit showcased cutting‑edge weapons and protective kit.
- Global kudos – Julia Morley, head of the Miss World Organisation, praised the facility as “a beacon of innovation linking technology with community safety,” and said the visit deepened contestants’ appreciation for secure, welcoming cities.
- Secretariat soirée – Later, the group moved to the new Telangana Secretariat. After a ceremonial photo and floral homage to the ‘Telangana Thalli’ statue, guests enjoyed high tea featuring iconic Osmania and ‘Madam’ biscuits.
- Cultural sparkle – An informal Q‑and‑A let participants share favourite Telangana landmarks, followed by a dazzling drone show tracing Hyderabad’s heritage and Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy’s development vision.
- Festival roll‑out – The 72nd Miss World Festival opened on 10 May and runs through 3 June. State officials are leveraging events—from sports meets to Ramoji Film City tours—to spotlight Telangana as an elite tourism and investment destination.
Thank you for following the journey—Telangana looks forward to welcoming the world!
