HYDERABAD: The government will soon kick off the
loan waiver scheme as promised during the 2018 assembly elections,
TRS working president
KT Rama Rao said.
He said chief minister K Chandrasekhar Rao had given instructions to the officials for implementing the scheme. TRS had promised to waive off farm loans up to Rs 1 lakh to farmers and had incorporated it in the party’s manifesto. “The government is committed to pro-poor and pro-farmers schemes.
Telangana is the only state that introduced farmers’ welfare schemes like Rythu Bandhu and Rythu Bheema, which are unique in the country,” he said.
Addressing newly-elected chairpersons and vice-chairpersons of DCCBs and District Cooperative Marketing Committees at Telangana Bhavan here on Monday, KTR said people have been reposing faith and confidence in the government in every election. “Of the total 906 cooperative societies, 94% of them were secured by TRS.”
Later, KTR inspected the ongoing works of Durgam Cheruvu cable-stayed bridge.
