Amid tight fiscal, Telangana's new CM tasked with delivering '6' guarantees

Telangana PCC President A Revanth Reddy who is set to take over the reins of the state from Thursday will have a daunting task of making the bleak coffers ring to be able to fulfill the six guarantees that the Congress party gave during the run up to the recently concluded assembly polls.
