Demanding an immediate disbursal of dues for the jowar procured by the government, farmers staged protest in front of the Tahsildar office at Bazarhathnoor mandal centre
On January 26 this year, the Congress government had launched four schemes, including Indiramma Indlu, Rythu Bharosa, Indiramma Atmeeya Bharosa and distribution of ration cards.
The latest in this alleged misinformation campaign was an online report claiming that former Minister Harish Rao was being sidelined within the party and was considering an exit
The Rythu Bharosa scheme, unveiled with great enthusiasm on January 26, pledged ₹6,000 per acre to all farmers in a phased rollout. Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy had personally assured that the investment support would be fully disbursed by March 31. However, the distribution has been progressing slowly.
BRS MLC K Kavitha called upon the BRS activists to educate people about the cheating being done to various sections by the Congress government by visiting each and every village.
The former Minister said that the government had failed to release the input subsidy to farmers whose crops were damaged in 1,350 acres in the district during the last Yasangi
This comes shortly after it was revealed that the State posted zero per cent growth in GST collections for March 2025 compared to the same month last year
Save for partial implementation of Rythu Bharosa, the other schemes including Indiramma Indlu, Indiramma Atmeeya Bharosa, new ration cards are yet to take off properly
The Congress government had claimed to have already disbursed Rythu Bharosa payments for farmers owning up to three acres. But farmers across the districts have disputed the claim.
Harish Rao pointed out that Revanth Reddy made grand announcements on January 26 and in the Assembly, assuring that investment support of Rs.6,000 per acre would be credited to farmers' accounts by March 31
The Telangana government's meagre Rs 600 crore allocation for the Indiramma Aathmeeya Bharosa scheme in the 2025-26 budget has raised serious questions about the Congress' commitment to welfare programmes
