BRS government’s steadfast commitment helping weavers earn sustainable income: KCR

Chief Minister K Chandrasekhar Rao has said his government’s steadfast efforts provided succour to weavers, who reeled under acute financial crisis before Telangana’s formation in 2014 and helped them get sustained income in the last nine-and-a-half years.

The BRS government has implemented a slew of initiatives such as “Bathukamma Saris” scheme aimed at giving fillip to the distressed weavers with humane approach, Mr. Rao, who is the BRS president, said while addressing an election meeting titled “Praja Ashirvada Sabha” in the textile town of Sircilla on Tuesday evening.

He touched upon various welfare schemes meant for weavers, farmers, and the toiling masses during his speech at the well-attended public meeting in Sircilla, the constituency represented by his son and party working president and Minister for Industries, IT and Textiles K. T. Rama Rao.
