The government is spending Rs 38,000 crore for implementing guarantee schemes. It will be increased to Rs 58,000 crore next year, the minister added.

A report from the district administration will be sought on addressing the grievances of the people.

“I am aware of the problems faced in Kadaba taluk. The issues pertaining to row over forest land, survey of the land and others will be resolved within time frame,” promised the minister.
