CM Revanth Accuses BRS of Rs.22,000 Cr Misuse in Rythu Bandhu
Hyderabad: Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy said that the Rythu Bandhu scheme, introduced by the BRS government in 2018, had led to the misuse of nearly Rs.22,000 crore out of 72,817 crore disbursed over six years (2018-2023). As a corrective measure, the Congress government will launch a new initiative, Rythu Bharosa, commemorating the dawn of 2025. Participating in the short discussion on Rythu Bharosa in the Legislative Assembly on Saturday, Revanth Reddy accused the BRS government of misallocating funds intended to support farmers, citing instances of rythu bandhu being extended to uncultivated lands, real estate ventures, hillocks, highways, mining and crusher units. Shall we continue extending it to mountains, stones and roads? he questioned, highlighting land irregularities near Rajiv Rahadari in Gajwel constituency and Srisailam roads in Amangal. Describing Rythu Bharosa as an ambitious and farmer-centric scheme, the Chief Minister stressed the importance of transparency and accountability. He invited suggestions from opposition parties and other stakeholders, aiming to finalise the schemes modalities to avoid its misuse. The government is committed to ensuring the welfare of farmers who depend on land and consider it their mother, he said. He urged opposition leaders to provide constructive inputs, while taking a swipe at BRS leaders, suggesting that they should lower their heads in shame for their past failures. Revanth Reddy held the BRS government accountable for high rates of farmer suicides during its ten-year tenure. He cited official data indicating 1,358 suicides in 2015 and 632 in 2016, adding that Telangana reported the second highest farmer suicide numbers in the country. It is shameful that a rich and surplus state witnessed such tragedies, he remarked. He contrasted this with the Congress governments record, which waived 20,616 crore in farm loans for over 25 lakh farmers in just 27 days during its first year in office. We dont consider this our greatness; we consider it as our responsibility, he said. Highlighting discrepancies in the BRS governments farm loan waivers, he stated that out of Rs.27,000 crore promised, only Rs.16,143 crore was disbursed in the first term (2014-18), with the second term (2018-2023) achieving only Rs.11,909 crore. Of this, Rs.8,515 crore went toward interest payments, leaving Rs.3,384 crore as actual waivers. The previous government claimed it didnt even have Rs.8,000 crore to support farmers. Now, they talk about welfare, he said, accusing the BRS leaders of enriching themselves through 'fake title deeds' and 'dubious land classifications. The Chief Minister emphasised that rythu bharosa would prioritise genuine farmers and exclude non-agricultural beneficiaries. The new scheme aims to ensure that government resources are channeled towards improving the livelihoods of land-dependent farmers and not wasted on layouts or undeveloped lands. While expressing confidence in his governments plans, the Chief Minister urged the opposition to contribute responsibly rather than indulge in rhetoric. If their suggestions are reasonable, we are ready to listen, he concluded.

Bhatti seeks Centres nod for 1% cess on B2B deals
Hyderabad: Finance minister Mallu Bhatti Vikramarka urged the Centre to permit to levy one per cent cess on B2B transactions in the state under GST to meet the expenses for rehabilitation and reconstruction due to recent floods. He pointed out that neighbouring Andhra Pradesh also made a similar request. On the recommendation of the GST council, the matter has been referred to a group of ministers (GoM), in which Telangana has also been included. Taking part in the 55th meeting of the council chaired by Union finance minister Nirmala Sitaraman at Jaisalmer in Rajasthan, Bhatti Vikramarka proposed to set up a committee of officers. It was immediately constituted by the council to examine the issue of applicable rate of tax on delivery services by delivery partners, including the restaurant services, through electronic commerce operators. The officers of Telangana have also been included in the committee. It was proposed that aviation turbine fuel (ATF) be brought under the tax net of GST. It is being taxed by the states under the relevant State VAT Acts. Telangana has opposed the proposal, as the states presently have very limited sources of generation of revenue. Further, the ATF is derived from crude oil, which is presently taxed under VAT. Therefore, Bhatti Vikramarka requested the council to maintain the status quo on the issue, which was supported by several other states and agreed by the council.
