“This meeting will be historic,”he said, adding that Chief Minister K Chandrashekhar Rao would be highlighting the details of over 450 schemes being implemented in Telangana during the meeting, he said.

Jeevan Reddy said the party has already started a publicity drive in Maharashtra to highlight various welfare schemes being implemented by the BRS government. Schemes such as Rythu Bandhu, free quality power supply to the agriculture sector, loan waiver for farmers, Rythu Bhima scheme and several other schemes benefits were being explained to the people of Maharashtra, he added.

Maharashtra, which tops in income among all the States in the country and presents a big budget, was lagging in development and welfare, he said. “I do not understand why Maharashtra, which is known as the financial capital of the country, has become the pinnacle of farmers’ suicides,” he said.
