Deposit money of all welfare schemes before Nov 2: TPPC chief Revanth Reddy

Telangana Congress president A Revanth Reddy demanded that all the money to be extended to the beneficiaries under various welfare schemes including Rythu Bandhu be released by November 2, 2023. The State Assembly Elections-2023 will be held on November 30.

Speaking to reporters in New Delhi on Thursday, he said the party has approached the Election Commission of India to ensure that the welfare money is deposited to beneficiaries before November as the Chief Minister K. Chandrashekhar Rao may delay the release of money.

He saw the possibility of the state government stopping funds to blame the Congress party. “We are demanding conduct of elections in a fair manner. However, the government is objecting to this and spreading rumours about Congress,” he said adding that no can stop the defeat of the Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS).
