Hyderabad: The Cabinet Sub-Committee on Rythu Bharosa would embark on district visits from Wednesday to conduct public hearings and seek their views and opinion on extending financial benefit to the farmers under the scheme from next agricultural season.

The Cabinet Sub-Committee headed by Deputy Chief Minister Bhatti Vikramarka will visit old Khammam followed by Adilabad, Mahbubnagar, Warangal, Medak, Nizamabad, Karimnagar, Nalgonda and Rangareddy districts.

During the nine-day visit till July 23, the sub-committee would meet all sections of people and discuss the challenges being faced by the farmers and to extend the Rythu Bharosa scheme benefit to them.

The issue of extending benefits to tenant farmers would also be discussed in these meetings. The demand for financial assistance to tenant farmers has been pending for a long. Based on the outcome of the public hearing, the cabinet sub-committee will take a final call on the modalities.

The Congress has announced the Rythu Bharosa scheme by replacing Rythu Bandhu. The ruling party announced the increase of scheme benefit from Rs 5,000 per acre to Rs 7,500 every farming season. Bhatti said that the workshops would help to elicit the opinion of the people before finalising the guidelines and modalities for the implementation of the scheme.
