The delegation has expressed
happiness and congratulated the CM for initiating several programmes and
schemes for the upliftment of their community and other backward Classes and
supporting their cause. They said these schemes and programmes are very
innovative and great. On this occasion, the CM has explained to them various
schemes, programmes launched by the state government for the development
welfare of the BCs in general and Golla Kurumas in particular. The CM said he
had been in the public life for 40 years and lead the Telangana statehood
movement and hence he would know what exactly people need. If one does good for
the people will greatly benefit but by not making mere words but only strong
actions. He said he has clarity on what people want and need. During the
Telangana statehood agitation, the CM said he had spent hours together with
national leaders from all the political parties explaining to them in details
why a Telangana separate state is needed. After 14 years of relentless struggle
the Telangana State is achieved and he had done a deep study on what good
should be done to the people, the CM said. He said it was necessary to study
about Telangana during the separate statehood movement and the study continued
even after coming to power on what should be done to the State. Under the united AP rule nothing good was
done to the region or else there would not have been any problem. With the
natural resources provided by mother nature, there is nothing one cannot
produce and the opportunity should be properly utilised by both the national
and state.
Explaining about the sheep
distribution scheme, the CM said Yadav community is crores in number in the
country but yet we are importing meat. He said in Telangana state there are
about 35 to 40 lakh Yadav community people and their profession is rearing
sheep. But yet the State is importing 650 truckloads of meat and in Hyderabad
city alone 35p Truckloads of meat is being imported on a daily basis, which is
shameful. A deep thought and study is done on how to stop this import of meat
and as a result Rs 4,500 Crore worth scheme is planned. As part of the plan, it
is decided to distribute 84 Lakh sheep in the State in the next two years. So
far 23.80 Lakh sheep were distributed as part of the programme. He said the
government has resolved to tap and develop the human resource of the Golla
Kuruma communities. The CM said after two years, in Hyderabad, All India
Shepard Community Conference will be held and by then the Telangana Shepard
community will become the richest community.
The CM said in the past no
one ever understood the problems faced by the farmers and hence the suicides.
He said for the first time, a step is initiated to organise the farmers through
the Farmers Seva Samithies. Rs 8000 per acre will be given as an input subsidy
to farmers from next year. If farmers,
Shepard community, Milk producers become economically strong the Stare’s
economy will be robust.
In this context, the CM
announced the grant of 10 acres of land for the construction of Golla Kuruma
Hostel and Rs 10 crore funds. For all those BC candidates who cannot win from
the direct election, they can be accommodated in the Legislative Council. The
CM had lunch with the delegation at Pragati Bhavan.
