Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy has consented to erect a statue of Sant Sevalal Maharaj, esteemed as a spiritual guide and advocate of social change by the Banjara community, in Hyderabad.
Ramesh Karthik, who used to work as a steward in catering events to earn some money to publish his books, has been writing on the culture and lifestyle of Banjara communities, adding a dash of fiction.
He cited that it was releasing funds to observe the birth anniversary of Sant Sevalal as a State festival and for providing bullocks and electric motors to eligible tribals under ‘Giri Vikasam’
