Telangana: Revanth leaves trail of public hope as padayatra resumes
Deccan ChronicleHyderabad: As Telangana Congress chief A. Revanth Reddy resumed his yatra as part of the Haath Se Haath Jodo Abhiyan, the public along the route of the event eagerly awaits his visit meeting, as he continues to shower the milling crowds assembling to catch a glimpse or hear him across villages and towns with several promises. Even as Revanth Reddy promises an array of benefits for every section of the society, from reducing LPG cylinder cost, or elevating Dalit leaders in the political sphere, political opponents and observers remain sceptical over the feasibility of implementing his promises if the Congress comes to power. During a visit to Bhadradri, Revanth Reddy alleged complete neglect in development and promised to allocate Rs 100 crore for development if the Congress comes to power. Among other promises made by Revanth Reddy are filling up 2 lakh government jobs within a year, resolving fee reimbursement issues of students, Rs 5 lakh health coverage and clearing Rs 800 crore of pending bills to private hospitals.
