Hyderabad: With some major programmes and schemes set to be launched this month, chief minister A Revanth Reddy is holding a district collectors’ conference on Friday. The CM will review and give instructions to the district collectors on important schemes such as Rythu Bharosa, ration cards, Indiramma Atmeeya Bharosa and Indiramma Indlu (housing).
The state cabinet recently decided to give Rythu Bharosa, which was enhanced from Rs 10,000 per acre to Rs 12,000 per acre, and also give Rs 12,000 to the landless agricultural poor under Indiramma Atmeeya Bharosa from Jan 26. The govt also decided to issue new ration cards this month. While the survey for Indiramma houses has already begun and is completed in many districts, the scheme will be launched this month.
The CM is likely to give instructions to the collectors for the smooth implementation of the schemes.
