Telangana was officially formed on June 2, 2014, after a 57-year-long fight and the loss of several lives. Meanwhile, in Telangana, CM K Chandrasekhar Rao attended an event to mark the state formation day. KCR earlier said that the formation of separate Telangana was made possible due to the sacrifices made by people and the state has been built on the same spirit.

On the occasion of the state's formation day, the government has released a 172-page progress report highlighting the developmental works carried out to benefit the public. In the report, the government laid down the schemes that have benefitted a large chunk of the population in the state through Shaadi Mubarak, KCR Kits, Kalyana Laxmi, Rythu Bima, Rythu Bandhu, Asara pensions among others.

According to the report, nearly 63 lakh farmers have been receiving Rythu Bandhu twice a year which equals Rs 5,000 per acre since 2018, while 60.83 lakh farmers have received the same for the Kharif season.
