Rajanna-Sircilla: Collector Anurag Jayanthi advised Dalits to develop their economic status by selecting long-lasting units under Dalit Bandhu scheme.

The Collector organised a meeting with Dalits in Rangampeta of Veernapalli mandal on Friday and educated the community people about the sanction of units. Speaking on the occasion, he informed that 22 Dalit families from the village have been selected for the scheme based on their economic conditions after a grassroot level survey. Instead of temporary units, beneficiaries should select units that would provide employment for a long time. A number of beneficiaries could set up big units by forming groups, he advised.
