The
election commission on
monday revoked the
telangana government's authority to grant financial help to farmers for rabi crops under the Rythu Bandhu Scheme after a state
minister violated the model code by making a public declaration about it. On specific circumstances, the poll panel granted the state
government permission to distribute the rabi installment within the model code of conduct period.
As part of the stipulation, the state was urged not to publicise the payout during the
election period.
telangana heads to the polls on
november 30th. The
ec notified the state's chief electoral officer of its intention to revoke its permit. The state finance
minister made a public declaration concerning the distribution of rabi instalment payouts. "The disbursement will be made on
monday," he allegedly remarked. The money will be deposited to the farmers' accounts even before they finish their breakfast and tea."
Following the approval, the officials promptly began the payout procedure, meeting the demands of farmers who had already begun Yasangi activities. Over the next three days, over 65 lakh farmers would get direct
bank account deposits totaling around Rs 7300 crore, according to authorities. The
telangana administration has requested approval from the ECI to pay outstanding dearness allowance (DA) to state
government employees as well as distribute payments relating to Rythu Bandhu help and agricultural loan waiver to farmers in compliance with the Model Code of Conduct.
