Existing pensioners and Rythu Bharosa beneficiaries will continue to get benefits : Telangana CM Revanth Reddy

Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy allayed fears among the beneficiaries of various schemes including Rythu Bharosa (formerly Rythu Bandhu) and said that they would continue to get the benefits.

Mr. Reddy who reviewed the progress of Praja Palana with senior officials on Saturday, dismissed the apprehensions in some quarters that old beneficiaries of welfare schemes such as Rythu Bandhu need to apply afresh for receiving the benefits. These sections would continue to get their benefit as usual and only people who are eligible but left out should submit fresh applications, the CM said.
