Chief Minister K. Chandrashekar will now meet the electorate from August 23 with the credibility of fulfilling major promises as his main poll plank for the coming elections.
At the same time, more than 5O MLAs have been given the green signal to start the work for the coming elections in their respective constituencies.
There will be more than twenty new faces in the coming elections in Telangana for the BRS. It looks like KCR will be concentrating on the farmers’ vote for the elections and he is confident of a hattrick.
KTR the IT Minister on the other side is looking at the Urban population and telling them about the need for the KCR to continue the governance in the coming years.
That is the reason KCR is going for the slogan Ab Ki Bar Kisan Sircar.
The Telangana state government has spent the highest in the country on a crop loan waiver scheme. Soon after assuming charge as the Chief Minister for the first term in June 2014, KCR waived off loans up to Rs 1 lakh of 35.31 lakh farmers by spending Rs 16,144 crore.
In his second term in office, from December 2018, KCR waived loans of 16.22 lakh farmers by spending Rs 7,753 crore, so far.
KCR has decided to waive off the loans amounting to Rs 13,000 crore of farmers who owe loans of more than Rs 1 lakh each by September 15. For them, the government will pay Rs 1 lakh and the balance amount will have to be cleared by farmers.
While the Congress is trying to be at the forefront, the BJP is groping in the dark. Leaders from the BJP are joining the Congress and the BRS. People are sure that the BJP will be in third place in the coming elections.
All said and done the BRS has the edge of winning the elections and coming back to power.
