These guarantees represent a significant aspect of the party’s election manifesto, reflecting their dedication to addressing various socio-economic challenges and providing support to women and households across the state. They signify the Congress party’s commitment to enhancing the lives of the people of Telangana if entrusted with the responsibility of governance.

Addressing a rally in Tukkuguda, Sonia Gandhi expressed the Congress party’s commitment to fulfilling the aspirations of the people of Telangana by announcing a set of six guarantees. These guarantees are aimed at improving the lives of the residents of Telangana, and Sonia Gandhi emphasized the party’s dedication to fulfilling each one of them. The Telangana assembly polls are scheduled to be held later this year.

Rahul Gandhi elaborated on the first three guarantees during the rally. The first guarantee, called ‘Indiramma Indlu,’ promises to provide Rs 5 lakh for the construction of houses to those who currently do not have one. Additionally, individuals who participated in the Telangana statehood movement will receive a 250 square yard house under this scheme.

The second guarantee, known as the ‘Mahalakshmi guarantee,’ focuses on empowering women. It pledges to provide women with Rs 2,500 per month, offer gas cylinders at the affordable price of Rs 500, and extend free bus travel for women.

The third guarantee, termed ‘Gruha Jyoti,’ promises to provide 200 units of free electricity to all households in Telangana. These guarantees reflect the Congress party’s commitment to addressing housing, women’s empowerment, and access to essential utilities for the people of Telangana, signaling their intent to prioritize the well-being of the state’s residents if elected to govern.

Rahul Gandhi went on to explain the remaining three guarantees announced by the Congress party during the rally:

Under the fourth guarantee, named ‘Yuva Vikasam,’ the party pledges to provide Rs 5 lakh in assistance for college education, along with financial aid for coaching to support the educational aspirations of the youth.

The fifth guarantee, called ‘Cheyutha,’ promises a monthly pension of Rs 4,000 for the elderly population. Additionally, it includes the provision of Rs 10 lakh through the Rajiv Arogyasri insurance scheme, which is aimed at providing healthcare coverage and support for medical expenses.

Lastly, the sixth guarantee, termed ‘Rythu Bharosa,’ focuses on the agricultural sector. It promises an annual financial assistance of Rs 15,000 for farmers and Rs 12,000 for farm laborers. This guarantee reflects the Congress party’s commitment to supporting the agricultural community and enhancing the welfare of the state’s farmers and laborers.

It’s worth noting that earlier this year, the Congress party had introduced five guarantees ahead of the Karnataka state elections and asserted that they had successfully fulfilled the promises they made to the people of that state. These guarantees for Telangana showcase the party’s commitment to addressing various facets of the state’s development and the well-being of its residents.
