Telangana CM reviews grain procurement, monsoon preparedness, housing initiatives in VC with officials
Hyderabad, May 27 (UNI) Telangana Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy held a high-level video conference with ministers, top officials, and all district collectors from the Command Control Centre on Tuesday evening to review key government initiatives, including grain procurement, Indiramma Indlu, Bhu Bharati, and monsoon preparedness. Deputy Chief Minister Mallu Bhatti Vikramarka and ministers Tummala Nageswara Rao, N. Uttam Kumar Reddy, Ponguleti Srinivas Reddy, Ponnam Prabhakar, Seethakka, Komatireddy Venkat Reddy, and Damodar Rajanarasimha were present alongside Chief Secretary A Ramakrishna Rao and senior officials. The Chief Minister announced that Telangana has recorded its highest-ever grain procurement of 64.5 lakh metric tons, with 90 per cent of the crop already procured. He congratulated the collectors and officials for this achievement, noting that Rs 12,184 crore has been transferred to farmers' accounts within 48 hours of procurement—a record turnaround time. However, he flagged challenges due to the early arrival of monsoon, 15 days ahead of schedule, and urged officials to complete the remaining procurement swiftly, using local godowns if needed. He also called for strict action against millers or brokers harassing farmers, and urged Collectors to regularly update the public on procurement status to counter misinformation and politically motivated narratives. With 29 per cent more rainfall expected this monsoon, the CM directed Agriculture Department officials to ensure readiness, including availability of seeds and fertilisers, and alertness against fake seed sellers, warning of PD Act action against violators. On the Bhu Bharati initiative, he emphasised that it should be a 'gift to poor farmers' and asked officials to organise awareness seminars and bring the new land legislation closer to the public. The third phase of revenue conferences will be held from June 3 to 20. Discussing the Indiramma Housing scheme, the CM said district Collectors must play a key role in effective implementation, including ensuring timely distribution of free sand coupons, loans for brick and centring units, and use of modern technology. He instructed officials to form price control committees at the mandal level to monitor mason and crusher prices. Ministers in charge of each district will visit their respective regions on May 29 and 30, and submit a full report by June 1. The CM also directed that Telangana Formation Day on June 2 be celebrated in all districts with due grandeur, an official statement said. UNI VV GNK

Counter negative campaign on procurement, CM tells Collectors
Noting the negative campaign on the ongoing procurement, Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy directed the district collectors to give out information about procurement at regular intervals to effectively counter the propaganda. The Chief Minister complimented the farmers of the State who have produced a record 2.75 crore metric tonnes of paddy this season. The Chief Minister held a video conference with senior officials and district collectors on Tuesday to review the progress of procurement operations. He said politically motivated campaigns were trying to defame the government and to counter it general public should be made aware that the government procured an additional 21.50 lakh tonnes compared to the previous year. He cited an incident where a farmer died due to illness, but it was attributed to procurement delay. He asked the district collectors to hire local godowns, if need be, to ensure that procurement was not affected by rains. The government had procured 64.5 lakh metric tonnes of paddy during the current season, completing 90% of procurement. The government had spent ₹12,184 crore, and the amounts were credited into the farmers' accounts within 48 hours. 'We are unable to communicate the good work done by the government,' he said. The Chief Minister said the southwest monsoon arrived in the State 15 days in advance and this was causing problems in the procurement of food grain. Since the weather department had forecast 29% more rain this year, officials should be on alert. There are adequate quantities of seeds and fertilisers, and officials should distribute them keeping in view the farmers' needs. Stern action should be initiated against sale of spurious seeds and cases registered under the Preventive Detention Act against those involved, he said. He directed officials to nominate special officers to supervise the arrangements at the grassroots. Referring to Bhu Bharati Act, Mr. Reddy instructed the officials and district collectors to take it closer to people by conducting awareness meetings. He wanted them to conduct the third phase of revenue sadassus between June 3 and 20. Indiramma Indlu The Chief Minister said Indiramma Indlu, the weaker section housing programme, was crucial and its implementation was the responsibility of the district collectors. Steps should be taken to constitute mandal-level committees on price control. Besides, officials should distribute coupons about free sand supply and ensure that loans are provided for setting up centring units as well as brick making units. He directed the district in-charge Ministers to tour the district under their respective jurisdiction on May 29 and 30 and submit a comprehensive report on June 1.
