The ruling Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) is counting on its flagship Rythu Bandhu Scheme, an income support scheme for farmers, to accomplish a hat-trick of poll victories in Telangana.

As part of this scheme, the government, led by Chief Minister K Chandrashekar Rao, would hand out cheques to farmers on the basis of the land they hold and not through Direct Bank Transfer (DBT).

After renaming the erstwhile Telangana Rashtra Samithi (TRS) as BRS, thereby underlining his national ambitions, party chief KCR would settle for nothing less than a clear mandate in its favour in the November 30 polls.

Also, with the BRS chief making it plain that his party was neither with the BJP-led National Democratic Alliance (NDA) at the Centre or the Opposition bloc I.N.D.I.A (Indian National Developmental Inclusive Alliance), he would know that only a handsome win in his home state would drive the party’s national stocks and help it attract like-minded allies for another Opposition front against the NDA.

Prominent names in the party’s list included the CM himself contesting from two seats — Gajwel, the constituency he currently represents, and Kamareddy. Other prominent names include Koneru Konappa from Sirpur, Balka Suman from Chennur, Durgam Chinnaiah from Bellampalli and Kova Lakshmi from Asifabad.
