HYDERABAD: Telangana Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy on Saturday reaffirmed his commitment to implement the six guarantees within 100 days of coming to power in the State.
Revanth Reddy launched Maha Lakshmi scheme and Rajiv Aarogyasri scheme-(enhanced to Rs 10 lakh), the two of the six guarantees at Telangana Assembly premises, coinciding with the birthday of Congress senior leader Sonia Gandhi.
