Cash-Strapped-Chandrababu-Naidu-Loses-A-Weapon-Before-ElectionsAndhra Pradesh Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu finally announced the guidelines of the Annadatha Sukheebhava scheme, AP Version of Raithu Bandhu in Telangana. Many thought that Naidu will make it big with this scheme but the bad finances of this scheme ensured that it got completely diluted.

The State Government had decided to give 10000 Per family of farmers every year. This also includes 6000 Rupees given by the Central Government which means a huge disappointment. Naidu wanted to implement the scheme on par with what Telangana Government is doing but then the bad finances did not let it happen.

The only respite is that the Central Government has put a limit of 2 Hectares to be eligible for the help. But the State Government is extending it to every farmer. The farmers who are not eligible for Central Scheme will be paid the entire 10000 by the State Government. While Center is giving the funds in three installments, the state will give in Two installments.

This is actually a good scheme but the feelers of TDP favoring media for the last couple of weeks increased the expectations of the farmers. They are obviously disappointed that the government has put riders to the scheme by restricting to just 10000 Rupees for a family. Cash Strapped Naidu lost a weapon before the elections.
