The Election Commission of India has directed the Telangana government to defer the disbursement of funds under the Rythu Bharosa scheme until after the state's elections conclude on May 13. This decision follows an alleged violation of the electoral model code of conduct by Telangana Chief Minister Revanth Reddy, who mentioned the scheme in public speeches. The EC's directive aims to ensure the integrity of the electoral process by preventing any influence that might arise from the scheme's payouts before polling.
