Uttam launches ‘Rahul Cares’ programme

TPCC chief questions government’s hesitancy in bringing corona treatment under Aarogyasri scheme

Telangana Pradesh Congress Committee president and Nalgona MP N Uttam Kumar Reddy launched the Rahul Gandhi Cares programme along with Telangana Youth Congress president Sivasena Reddy under which Youth Congress would take up relief works for Covid patients in the State. These relief works include donating plasma for patients, setting up help centres to guide people on corona treatment, assist in getting medical advice for those affected with the virus and arranging oxygen and beds for those in definite need of the facility. Speaking on the occasion, Mr. Uttam Kumar Reddy questioned the government’s hesitancy in bringing corona treatment under the Aarogyasri scheme. The neighbouring Tamil Nadu and Andhra Pradesh government had already done it providing a huge relief to Covid patients. “Why is Chief Minister K. Chandrashekhar Rao going back on his assurance in the Assembly on bringing corona under Arogyasri?” he asked.
