The differently-abled people in Mothe mandal of Suryapet district protested on Tuesday, January 7, demanding the Congress government to implement its poll promise of having a separate welfare department for the differently-abled.
Expressing anger over the disabled welfare department not being recognised as a separate department even after the Congress government completed a year in power, the differently-abled held a protest in Burkacharla by holding knives to their necks and demanded the state government not to cut their throats and instead fulfill its election promise.
