BRS working president KT Rama Rao on Sunday launched a scathing attack on Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy, accusing him of reducing the number of beneficiaries in various welfare schemes. He questioned whether CM stood for “Cutting Master,” referring to the Chief Minister’s practice of cutting down on promised benefits.
In a statement, Rama Rao lashed out at the State government for
imposing numerous restrictions to reduce eligible farmers.
“During elections, you asked farmers to get crop loans with a promise to waive them off. But now, you are imposing numerous riders to implement the Rs.2 lakh loan waiver,” he said, also pointing out that the required amount for the scheme was significantly reduced from Rs.39,000 crore to Rs.31,000 crore since the Congress took power.
