Congress leader Rahul Gandhi addressed a large rally in Tukkuguda, Hyderabad on Sunday. He urged the crowd to vote out the “BJP Rishtedar Samithi” and bring the Congress party to power. Rahul Gandhi emphasized that the Congress party is committed to implementing six guarantees from the first day of forming the new Cabinet.
Rahul Gandhi praised Sonia Gandhi for her previous accomplishments and stated that when she makes a promise, she follows through. He mentioned that in 2004, Sonia Gandhi promised to examine the demand for separate Telangana, and she made it a reality. Similarly, he assured the crowd that the six guarantees would be implemented as soon as the Congress government is formed in the state. Rahul Gandhi emphasized that Telangana statehood was not granted for the benefit of KCR and his family.
Rahul Gandhi expressed confidence that the BRS government will be replaced within the next 100 days, regardless of whether it is BJP or AIMIM. He then explained the six guarantees announced by the Congress party for Telangana. The first guarantee is providing Rs 5 lakh for house construction to those who do not have a home. Additionally, a 250 square yard house will be given to those who fought in the Telangana statehood movement.
The second guarantee, called the Mahalakshmi scheme, promises to give Rs 2,500 per month to women, along with a subsidized cylinder for cooking gas and free bus travel. The third guarantee, called Griha Jyoti, ensures 200 units of free electricity.
The fourth scheme provides financial assistance of up to Rs 5 lakh for college education and coaching. Rahul Gandhi also mentioned a monthly pension of Rs 4,000 for the elderly and Rs 10 lakh health insurance. Lastly, he promised Rs 15,000 annually for farmers and Rs 12,000 for farm laborers.
Overall, Rahul Gandhi’s message focused on the Congress party’s commitment to implementing these guarantees once they come into power in Telangana.
