"loan-waiver"

A major fraud worth Rs. 13 crore has been uncovered at SBI’s Chennur branch, where a cashier, N. Ravinder, allegedly misappropriated funds by diverting them into online betting applications. Over 400 affected customers staged protests demanding action against the officials involved and loan waivers as punishment.

As the nation observed National Handloom Day, thousands of Telangana’s weavers had little to celebrate. The State’s once-thriving handloom industry is now reeling from broken promises, debt, and dwindling support. The shelving of key institutions and stalled cooperative society elections have further deepened the crisis.

BRS working president says the government failed to provide the promised Rs 500 bonus per quintal of grain

He also mentioned that the Congress government has failed to provide the Rs 500 bonus per quintal for fine quality paddy, which was one of the key promises made to farmers.

The party promised to fulfil promises within 100 days after assuming power, however, it has not kept its word so far, the villagers said

Rama Rao took to X to criticize Chief Minister Revanth Reddy for misleading farmers by promising a loan waiver of up to ₹2 lakh during elections but only partially implementing it, benefiting around 22 lakh farmers. "The Chief Minister falsely claimed to have fully completed the loan waiver, but the Agriculture Minister's statements have revealed his failure to fulfill that promise," Rao stated.

The farmers, who borrowed more than Rs.2 lakh, had repaid the additional amount to banks, but many were yet to get the waiver. They also said majority of farmers in the village had not yet got the loan waiver.

Rama Rao criticized the Congress for its inconsistency in implementing the Rythu Bharosa farm investment support. He stated, "They made grand election promises about Rythu Bharosa and loan waivers, but following Agriculture Minister Tummala Nageswara Rao's recent comments, Telangana farmers are now confused. They once claimed to support tenant farmers, but now they are backing out and leaving them without explanation."

Entrepreneur Nayini Anurag Reddy challenged the Chief Minister’s claim that there have been no teacher transfers in 18 years. On X, he shared a copy of GO Ms16 from June 6, 2018, showing that over 50,000 teachers were transferred in a large-scale process designed to address staffing imbalances. The transfers were carried out online to ensure transparency.

The delay in the implementation of the loan waiver scheme has left many farmers in a state of uncertainty, impacting their financial stability and ability to secure new loans.

BRS Working President K.T. Rama Rao criticized the Congress government on social media for not delivering on its promise to provide Rs 15,000 per acre as Rythu Bharosa to Telangana farmers. With just 17 days remaining in the Kharif season, he questioned the government's commitment to the farmers.

BRS working president KT Rama Rao said Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy was doubting and harassing farmers.

SBI Narsimhulapet branch was issuing only 30 tokens per day to issue loan waiver amounts, As soon as the shutter of the bank was opened, people rushed inside to get a token and in the melee Manda Samakka suffered injuries above her right eye.

The protesting farmers claimed that most of them, despite being eligible, have not received their loan waiver amounts. In response, bank officials had to lock the entrance to prevent the farmers from entering the bank.
