Congress government’s stricter implementation of eligibility saved expenditure on Rythu Bharosa: Study
By M. Rajeev3 min read at The Hindu
In brief
An independent study by the Centre for Economic and Social Studies noted that the Congress government's stricter enforcement of eligibility criteria for the Rythu Bharosa scheme reduced expenditure by 45% from ₹13,576 crore to ₹7,481 crore.
The study highlighted that the previous Rythu Bandhu scheme under the Bharat Rashtra Samithi regime was often misused by absentee landowners, excluding actual cultivators.
Despite the reduction in expenditure, the support per acre under Rythu Bharosa increased from ₹5,000 to ₹6,000.
