All set for Rythu Bharosa Vijayotsavam meet today
Hyderabad: Deputy Chief Minister Bhatti Vikramarka said that the Congress-led people's government in Telangana "in a mere nine days, has provided Rs 9,000 crore under Rythu Bharosa (Farmers' Financial Assurance Scheme) to the farmers."
He stated that the assurances to farmers have been fully implemented in a short time, which is unprecedented in the state's history.
Participating in a meeting in Gandhi Bhavan here on Monday, he announced that the implementation of Rythu Bharosa started on June 14 and would be completed on June 24 (today). 'Following the completion of the implementation of the scheme, we, including Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy, will interact with members of farmers' forums at the Rajiv Gandhi statue opposite the Secretariat on Tuesday,' he said.
'Earlier, ahead of the agriculture season, farmers were provided Rs 10,000 per acre. However, we added Rs 2,000 and gave Rs 12,000. In the past, there were limitations of only 5 to 10 acres.
Our government is providing financial assistance under the scheme to all cultivable lands," he said. Meanwhile, Agriculture Minister Tummala Nageswara Rao and Chief Secretary Ramakrishna Rao reviewed arrangements for the Rythu Bharosa Vijayotsavam Sabha scheduled for Tuesday with senior officials from all related departments. Nageswara Rao highlighted that the government is committed to supporting farmers with the main objective to improve the status of Telangana's farmers. The celebrations will be facilitated through the Rythu Nestham platform. Beneficiaries of Rythu Bharosa from all districts are expected to attend the event. He said the state government provided Rs. 21,000 crore in loan waivers to 2.5 million farmers.

De-escalation of Iran-Israel conflict pushes oil down, aids India bond bulls
Indian government bonds experienced a rise following a sharp decrease in oil prices Synopsis Indian government bonds experienced a rise following a sharp decrease in oil prices, spurred by optimism from a potential Israel-Iran ceasefire. This development eased concerns about supply disruptions and inflationary pressures. Consequently, the yield on the benchmark 10-year bond decreased, while the market anticipates upcoming bond sales by New Delhi and state governments. Indian government bonds climbed in early deals on Tuesday, following a sharp drop in oil prices, as U.S. President Donald Trump's announcement of an Israel-Iran ceasefire relieved concerns over supply disruptions, easing inflationary woes. ADVERTISEMENT The yield on the benchmark 10-year bond was at 6.2853% as of 10:00 a.m. IST, a trader at a private bank said, after ending at 6.3053% on Monday. The five-year 6.75% 2029 bond was at 6.0041% after ending at 6.0304%. Yields move inversely to prices. "The developments are favourable for bond bulls and we have already seen the reaction, but any larger declines based on this, are unlikely from the current levels," trader with a state-run bank said. Oil prices tumbled, extending their declines in Asian hours, with the benchmark Brent crude contract stabilising below $70 per barrel, after hitting a five-month high of $81.40 on Monday. ADVERTISEMENT Prices began dropping after Iran chose not to take any action to disrupt supply through the Strait of Hormuz but instead attacked a U.S. military base in Qatar. India imports a bulk of its crude oil needs and higher prices could impact the nation's inflation outlook. ADVERTISEMENT Earlier this month, the Reserve Bank of India reduced its inflation forecast for 2025 to 3.7% and cut its key lending rate by a steeper-than-expected 50 basis points. Focus is expected to shift to fresh supply as New Delhi will sell 300 billion rupees ($3.48 billion) worth of the benchmark bond on Friday, while states aim to raise 272 billion rupees through debt sale later in the day. ADVERTISEMENT RATES Indian overnight index swap (OIS) rates declined amid receiving interest across the curve. The one-year OIS rate was at 5.48% and the two-year OIS rate was at 5.49%. The liquid five-year dropped 7 basis points to 5.69%.

AP cabinet to meet today, to approve major investments and development projects
The Andhra Pradesh Cabinet is scheduled to convene at 11am on Tuesday, where it is expected to approve investments totalling Rs 28,546 crore for 19 projects that were greenlit during the recent 7th State Investment Promotion Board (SIPB) meeting. A significant item on the agenda is the discussion surrounding the establishment of Cognizant in Visakhapatnam. In addition, the Cabinet will review plans to invite tenders for the development of infrastructure across 1,450 acres within the Amaravati Government Complex, estimated to cost Rs 1,052 crore. Another critical proposal involves inviting tenders for the connection of the Seed Access Road to National Highway 16, estimated at Rs 682 crore. Moreover, the Cabinet is likely to explore land allotments to various organisations and is anticipated to address the acquisition of an additional 44,000 acres through land pooling in the second phase of the Amaravati project. This discussion coincides with the coalition government's completion of one year in power. Also on the table will be the Aerospace and Defence Policy, with recommendations for the establishment of two new urban development organisations in the state as part of a broader reorganisation initiative. Approval for these measures is likely to be secured during the forthcoming Cabinet meeting. Additionally, the Cabinet will deliberate on the operational details of the Annadata Sukhibhava scheme. Following the meeting, it is expected that Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu will engage with ministers regarding the latest political developments.
