Hyderabad: Stating that Prime Minister Narendra Modi‘s statements were plaugued with factual errors, Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy clarified that the State Government was implementing the promises made to the people in Telangana.
The Chief Minister on X said “I am happy to clarify several misconceptions and factual errors in your statements about my state and our government. In Telangana since December 7, 2023, when the congress government took oath, a wave of joy & hope has swept the state, after a near-decade of BRS misrule,”
He further said within two days of taking charge, the government of Telangana unveiled the delivery of its first and second promise – free bus travel for women across all TGSRTC buses,and a healthcare & hospitalisation cover of 10 lakhs under Rajiv arogyasree.
In last 11 months our sisters and mothers of Telangana have travelled without paying a single rupee fare, undertaking over 101 crore free bus trips across the State, saving Rs 3,433.36 crore in less than a year, the Chief Minister stated.
“Even before completing our first year, we have implemented India’s largest ever, state-level farmer loan waiver, ensuring Rythe Raju (Farmer is King, in Telangana). Over 22 lakh and 22 thousand farmers (22,22,365) are now free of any loan, living like a king, with all loans of ryots up to Rs 2,00,000 waived. We have put over Rs 18,000 crores into farmers’ accounts in 25 days,” said Revanth Reddy said.
The Chief Minister stressed that women were blessing us because they get free electricity, with no domestic power charge for their homes up to 200 units.
“They are delighted that while they suffer high prices of gas cylinders in BJP ruled states, they get a cylinder at only Rs 500 a unit in Congress-ruled Telangana. In our tenure till now, over 1.31 crore gas cylinder refills have taken place, with over 42,90,246 beneficiaries smiling their way to the kitchen every day,” he said.
The Congress government has done the highest recruitment drive and is regularly holding exams of all levels – Group 1, 2, 3 and 4. In less than 11 months, the Congress government has provided jobs for over 50,000 eligible youth, a record unmatched by any BJP state government, he maintained.
“We are cleaning and rejuvenating our River #Musi that was neglected in the past. We are also protecting our lakes, nullahs and other precious water bodies, encroached upon & destroyed wantonly with abandon in the last 10 years – not a single inch of lake has been encroached upon since #Congress came to power. And also We are creating a Future City & a masterplan is being finalised” the Chief Minister said.
“We have set the ball rolling for the Young India Skills University,YI SportsUniversity and YI Integrated Residential schools. Every promise made by us to people is a sacred commitment for us. In the last 11 months, we have reversed an air of gloom & despair under BRS, and ended the darkness. Like a morning sun, Telangana is now Rising,” Revanth Reddy stresses.
