WARANGAL: The BRS has extended financial assistance of ₹10 lakh to the family of Vemula Lakshman Goud, a Telangana statehood movement activist and active party worker who recently passed away.
Former minister and Siddipet MLA T. Harish Rao, accompanied by Jangaon MLA Palla Rajeshwar Reddy, visited the family at Konne village in Bachannapet mandal of Jangaon district on Tuesday. They paid floral tributes to Lakshman Goud’s portrait and consoled his family members.
Speaking on the occasion, Harish Rao said he had visited the family on the directions of BRS president K. Chandrasekhar Rao. He said the family had been facing severe financial difficulties following a series of setbacks, including the seizure of its JCB vehicle in connection with a mining case, heavy penalties, irrigation and power-related issues, and the inclusion of its land in the prohibited properties list.
Stating that the sacrifices made by Telangana statehood movement activists would never be forgotten, Harish Rao said it was the party’s responsibility to stand by their families during difficult times. He assured the family that the BRS would continue to extend its support.
Meanwhile, Palla Rajeshwar Reddy assured the family that he would arrange a job for Lakshman Goud’s wife and take responsibility for the education of their children. He also urged the district Collector to conduct an enjoyment survey of the family’s agricultural land and ensure justice based on the actual facts.
