N. Lokesh said new conditions were being laid to deny the benefits to the tribal people
TDP national general secretary N. Lokesh has urged Chief Minister Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy not to cancel the welfare benefits of tribal people in the name of eKYC.
In a letter to the Chief Minister on Friday, Mr. Lokesh demanded that the cancelled pension of the aged persons, widows and the differently-abled tribal people should be restored immediately.
“There is a need for ensuring uninterrupted distribution of rice. Also, the wrong entries in the land records should be corrected. The people in the Agency areas are facing untold miseries because of the negligence of the village volunteers,” the TDP leader alleged.
