Krishna Rao said that apart from providing financial assistance to eligible beneficiaries, the corporation would construct Aarama Kshetrams and Community Halls. “Plans are also afoot to expand schemes to newer areas such as health insurance, food and shelter for destitute and pensions for widows and the elderly,” he added.
