Telangana Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy launched the "Rajiv Gandhi Civils Abhayahastam" programme to provide ₹1 lakh financial assistance to Civil Services aspirants from Telangana who qualify for the Mains exams. This scheme is part of Singareni Collieries Company Ltd (SCCL)'s 'Nirmaan' programme and aims to benefit around 400 candidates from Telangana each year. Eligibility for this scheme includes candidates from SC, ST, OBC, Women, and EWS categories with a family annual income below ₹8 lakhs and who are permanent residents of Telangana. The government focuses on addressing the issues of unemployed youth, including reforms in the Telangana State Public Service Commission (TGPSC) and plans to streamline the recruitment process. The Rajiv Gandhi Civils Abhayahastam programme exemplifies the state government's commitment to supporting Civil Services aspirants by reducing financial barriers and promoting inclusivity among underrepresented groups.
