While I appreciate the gesture, I hope this isn't just for show. The real test will be whether the rice quality remains consistent month after month. The government should focus on sustainable implementation.

As someone from Bhadradri district, I can confirm the rice scheme has been helpful. My mother says the quality is much better than before. The free bus travel for women is life-changing too!

Interesting approach - eating with beneficiaries shows commitment. But I wonder how scalable this is? Can't wait to see if similar programs reach more remote villages in Telangana.

The Rs. 500 gas cylinder is a game-changer for middle class families! More such initiatives please 🙌 Also loved that he visited after temple rituals - shows respect for local traditions.

Good to see ground-level reporting about welfare schemes. Most times we only hear announcements but not the actual impact. More journalists should cover these beneficiary stories.

We welcome thoughtful discussions from our readers. Please keep comments respectful and on-topic.
