Cabinet to meet on June 5; Yuva Vikasam and employee issues on the agenda
The State Cabinet is scheduled to convene on June 5 to deliberate on several critical issues, including the ambitious Rajiv Yuva Vikasam programme and the Cabinet Sub-Committee report on employee-related matters. The decision was taken during a meeting of ministers chaired by Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy at the Integrated Command Control Centre on Sunday (June 01). It was attended by Deputy Chief Minister Bhatti Vikramarka and all the Ministers. The upcoming Cabinet meeting is expected to be a significant one, as it will address two major constituencies that were instrumental in the Congress party's return to power — the youth and government employees. The Rajiv Yuva Vikasam scheme, which has emerged as a flagship initiative aimed at youth empowerment, received overwhelming interest from the public. Ministers informed the Chief Minister that the volume of applications had exceeded expectations and flagged widespread complaints about attempts by ineligible individuals to exploit the scheme. To ensure transparency and credibility, the Cabinet will consider delaying the final announcement of beneficiaries until all applications are thoroughly screened. 'Not a single ineligible person should benefit from the scheme,' the CM said indicating the government's fairness intent. In addition, the Cabinet will take up the report submitted by the committee on employee issues. Deputy Chief Minister Mallu Bhatti Vikramarka, who received the report earlier, briefed the meeting on its findings. The meeting felt that the government must prepare a roadmap on all the demands of employees, and it requested the Deputy CM to conduct the next meeting with the government employee leaders soon to resolve them. The Ministers also reviewed reports from their recent visits to districts on May 29 and 30, where they assessed preparations for major initiatives like finalisation of list of beneficiaries of Indiramma house scheme, Revenue department conferences, and the cultivation readiness for the monsoon season. The ministers lauded Minister for Civil Supplies N. Uttam Kumar Reddy for his proactive efforts in streamlining grain procurement operations, ensuring minimal disruption to farmers.

'Disclose How Many Aircraft...': Congress Questions Govt On Op Sindoor Losses
Last Updated: The remark from Congress came hours after CDS Chauhan hinted at India losing fighter jets, but dismissed Pakistan's claim that it downed six Indian jets. Congress on Saturday asked the government to be transparent about India's military losses in Operation Sindoor. The remark by Telangana's Minister of Irrigation Uttam Kumar Reddy came after General Anil Chauhan, the Chief of Defence Staff (CDS), spoke about the loss of Indian aircraft in the operation. 'The fact that the fighter aircraft were shot down is something the government needs to stop denying. The CDS himself mentioned that. Earlier, Air Marshal Bharti had mentioned it indirectly in his briefing report, along with the DGMO… The whole country must realise today that for some reason, the GoI was not upfront with whatever happened," said Reddy. He also asked the government to clarify US President Donald Trump announcing the ceasefire between India and Pakistan on May 10 before any official announcement was made by the Indian government. 'The government of India never clearly stated how and why the US president first announced the ceasefire through a tweet beforehand, and hours later DGMO Pakistan called DGMO India, and the ceasefire was agreed upon. The Government of India must be more transparent on every significant event that took place throughout the Indo-Pak operation," he added.

He, however, dismissed Pakistan's claim that it downed six Indian jets. 'What is important is not the jet being down, but why they were down. What mistakes were made — that is important. Numbers are not," he said. 'The good part is that we are able to understand the tactical mistake that we made, remedy it, rectify it, and then implement it again after two days and fly all our jets again, targeting at long range," added CSD Chauhan. Meanwhile, Congress has reiterated its demand for transparency on Operation Sindoor on several occasions. Watch India Pakistan Breaking News on CNN-News18.
