KCR's Telangana Kalyana Lakshmi gets poor response

Hyderabad: Telangana Chief Minister K. Chandrasekhar Rao’s pet scheme Kalyana Lakshmi is getting poor response from the public. It is already known that the government decided to provide financial assistance of Rs 51,000 to girls aged above 18 years.

Only 5 applications were received since the announcement of scheme on October 2. Four were from Nalgonda and one from Warangal. Adding to the confusion it is still unclear that whether people will get benefitted from the old Bangaru Talli scheme, which was enacted by the N. Kiran Kumar Reddy government is still in force. Thousands have submitted applications for the scheme and are awaiting assistance from the government.
