🌾 #GoodNews for Farmers: Kaleshwaram Barrage Repairs Approved!
Hey everyone! Exciting news for farmers! With the approval from the Central Election Commission, Telangana Chief Minister Revanth Reddy chaired a nearly four-hour-long cabinet meeting at the Secretariat. The meeting covered several key issues, including paddy procurement, Kharif crop planning, Kaleshwaram Barrage repairs, and the upcoming academic year for schools.
Due to unusual and untimely rains, it was decided to purchase the wet paddy at the minimum support price (MSP) to prevent any losses to farmers. The responsibility of purchasing the paddy, without reducing even a single rupee from the MSP, has been assigned to the collectors. Additionally, a bonus of ₹500 per quintal will be given to farmers who cultivated fine rice. Strict measures will be taken to prevent the distribution of fake seeds.
The cabinet also discussed the interim report by NSDA on the Kaleshwaram Project. The ministers decided to carry out temporary repairs to ensure water supply to farmers. Minister Ponguleti confirmed this decision.
In another significant move, the cabinet decided to enhance government schools to compete with private institutions. Minister Sridhar Babu emphasized that the previous BRS administration neglected the education system and that the current government is committed to providing quality education with top-notch facilities.
As Telangana completes ten years of its formation, the cabinet has resolved to celebrate the event grandly. For the first time under the Congress government, Sonia Gandhi, who played a pivotal role in the formation of Telangana, will be invited. The cabinet decided to seek permission from the Election Commission to conduct the state formation day celebrations on June 2.
The Telangana government has taken a crucial step regarding the Kaleshwaram Barrage. The cabinet has resolved to repair the damaged barrages. Before the repairs, technical tests will be conducted. A team of ministers and officials will oversee the inspections with safety expert companies. The government is also preparing to lift water during the upcoming monsoon season.
