He attributed his government’s inability and delay in implementing the six guarantees and other election promises of the Congress to the previous BRS government. He stated that if challenges were being faced in rolling out schemes like Rythu Bharosa, providing financial assistance to tenant farmers, offering a monthly allowance to women, or distributing one tola of gold under the Kalyana Lakshmi scheme, the responsibility lay with the actions of the previous administration.

The BRS government had offered 4.5 lakh podu pattas to tribal and other community farmers. These farmers cultivate only one crop in a year due water availability and if restrictions were imposed in extending assistance to them under Rythu Bandhu or the new Rythu Bharosa, it would be detrimental to them, he stressed.

In this backdrop the government is trying to address factors that added to the disillusionment among the farming community, as part of which it planning to shelve the modifications mooted for extending the enhanced assistance under the Rythu Bharosa scheme. Initially, the scheme was proposed to be restricted to small and marginal farmers with land holdings of up to 5 acres. However, this restriction is now being reconsidered.
