KCR Makes Last-Minute Change To Escape Criticism

Telangana Government has released 7.6 Cr to monetary benefit 76 Dalit families under the Telangana Dalit Bandhu program to Vasalamarri village in Yadadri district. Vasalamarri has been the adopted village of Chief Minister K Chandrasekhara Rao.

Each eligible Dalit family will get Ten Lakh Rupees assistance from the Government under this scheme. There is a criticism that this scheme has been brought to woo the 50,000 Dalit votes of Huzurabad which will go for a by-election soon. There are 21,000 beneficiaries only in the constituency.

That means Telangana Government would need only 2,100 Crore Rupees for a single constituency. If the scheme has to be implemented across the state, it would cost a bomb for the state exchequer which sounds very unrealistic. It looks more like a trap to the Huzurabad electorate. the Opposition is criticizing

So to smash the criticism, KCR has decided to start the scheme from his adopted village in a different district. But then, the criticism can be averted only when the scheme is implemented for all the districts in the state.
