Welfare initiatives of government are all-inclusive: Bhatti

The Indiramma government, as part of its all-inclusive welfare and development approach, is providing at least one welfare benefit to nearly 93 lakh families of the total 1.10 crore families in Telangana, said Deputy Chief Minister Mallu Bhatti Vikramarka.

Inclusive growth and welfare of all are the hallmarks of the Indiramma rajyam, he asserted while addressing a public meeting in Madhira town of Khammam district on Sunday.

Earlier, he formally launched the distribution of sanction letters to around 1,544 beneficiaries of the State government’s flagship Indiramma Housing Scheme from Yerrupalem, Bonakal and Madhira mandals. He also laid the foundation stone for tourism development works worth ₹6.45 crore at the tank bund in Madhira town.

Mr. Vikramarka said the State government’s welfare initiatives are comprehensive and the scale of their benefits is all-inclusive. “In just one-and-a-half years, we have implemented some form of welfare programme for every stage of life, from birth to old age,” he asserted.

He alleged that the BRS rulers shattered the dreams of poor people of owning a home during their decade-long rule. “Soon after coming to power, the Congress government began construction of 4.5 lakh Indiramma houses in the first phase by spending ₹5 lakh per house, totaling ₹22,500 crore in just the first year,” he added.

He cited his four-month-long People’s March padayatra from Adilabad to Khammam as the Opposition leader in 2023 and that of the then PCC president and now Telangana Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy to know people’s problems across the State.
