Among the top 20 Panchayats across the country, 19 are from Telangana under the Sansad Adarsh Gram Yojana (SAGY), a central government scheme. Our villages are also performing well in the Swachh Survekshan Grameen rankings,” he said.
Following a request from Dayakar Rao, Rama Rao announced funds worth Rs.25 crore for the development of Thorrur town besides assuring to make efforts to get a 100-bed hospital to Thorrur town and a 50-bed hospital to Palakurthy town.
He later handed over cheques to members of SHGs, including interest free loans, Abaya Hastam, Sthree Nidhi funds and bank linkages. The State government would distribute Rs 1550 crore to SHG members in the State, he said.
Earlier, the Minister participated in inaugural and foundation laying ceremonies of development works worth Rs.14.48 crore at Thorrur. He also distributed 1,000 sewing machines to women at a programme.
