The State government is officially launching four new schemes across the Telangana State to mark the occasion of Republic Day on January 26. Deputy Chief Minister Bhatti Vikramarka announced that these initiatives will pertain to Rythu Bharosa, Indiramma Atmiya Bharosa, Indiramma Houses, and Ration Cards, and will be rolled out throughout the State.

During a press conference held at the Secretariat on Saturday, following a review meeting with senior officials led by Chief Minister Revanth Reddy at the Command Control Center in Banjara Hills, Bhatti Vikramarka stated that the implementation of these four schemes will take place in one village in each mandal. He also mentioned that the process of identifying beneficiaries will proceed continuously until March, given the large number of applications that have been submitted.

Bhatti confirmed that Grama Sabhas have been convened for the purpose of selecting beneficiaries and that welfare programs will be made available to all individuals who meet the eligibility criteria.

He stated that Rythu Bharosa would be extended for each acre of arable land, while Indiramma Atmiya Bharosa would be implemented for those who have participated for 20 days under the National Employment Guarantee Scheme.

Minister Uttam Kumar Reddy announced that following the conclusion of the Republic Day celebrations, which will take place until 11:30 AM, four welfare initiatives will be officially launched in a village between 1 PM and 2:30 PM. The programs to be introduced—Rythu Bharosa, Indiramma Atmiya Bharosa, ration cards, and Indiramma houses—will be fully implemented in the designated village.

He reassured everyone that there is no need for concern regarding ration cards, as the issuance of these cards is an ongoing process, and they will be provided to all eligible individuals. Minister Ponguleti Srinivas Reddy expressed that, in light of the state's financial challenges, the government remains committed to initiating four welfare schemes with integrity, in accordance with their prior commitment.

He noted that the Congress administration is accustomed to addressing issues transparently in public forums, thereby facilitating informed decision-making, which is evidenced by the convening of gram sabhas and the solicitation of applications from citizens. The Minister asserted that certain political parties are intentionally plotting to tarnish the government's reputation during the gram sabha meetings.
