Telangana Chief Minister Revanth Reddy is set to visit Delhi today. After paying respects to Goddess Mahankali in the morning, he will depart for Delhi in the afternoon. He has a scheduled meeting with senior AICC leader Rahul Gandhi on Sunday night or Monday.
Chief Minister Revanth Reddy has initiated the implementation of a Rs 2 lakh loan waiver for farmers, a promise made by Rahul Gandhi during the elections. To celebrate this initiative, Revanth plans to organize a massive public meeting in Warangal and will extend an invitation to Rahul Gandhi for the event. The date of the public meeting will depend on Rahul Gandhi’s availability, as the budget sessions of both the parliament and assembly are scheduled concurrently.
During his Delhi visit, Revanth is also expected to meet other Congress leaders to discuss cabinet expansion and the appointment of nominated posts. Additionally, he will meet with several union ministers to seek funds for development projects in Telangana, according to government sources.
The budget session of Telangana will commence on the 23rd of this month, with the assembly set to convene at 11 am on Tuesday. The Governor has already issued a notification regarding this. On the first day of the session, a condolence ceremony will be held to honor the late MLA Lasya Nandita, followed by the presentation of the full-fledged budget for the financial year 2024-25. Sources indicate that a budget of Rs 2.90 lakh crore has been prepared, covering all schemes including the loan waiver and six guarantees.
