Some of the designs spelt words to show their appreciation and happiness, such as ‘Jai KCR’ and ‘Jai Telangana.’ People commuted to the venue where the Dalit Bandhu meeting was being held on tractors, similar to how they would if a fair was going on. The venue reverberated with chants of ‘Jai Bhim’ and ‘Jai KCR.’
Laxmi, an SC woman from Chelpur village, said her entire family had been pleasantly surprised by the announcement of the scheme. She expressed gratitude to KCR for bringing in a new scheme for their empowerment.
Kotturi Radha from Kanukulagidda, a member of the first family to officially benefit from the scheme, expressed her happiness. While handing over the cheque to her, the Chief Minister asked her as to what would they utilise the amount for. Radha replied that they were going to start a dairy unit.
