The AgriGold Customers and Agents’ Welfare Association (ACAAWA) will stage a protest in Vijayawada on September 6 demanding that the State government release ₹3,060 crore immediately to facilitate payments to the AgriGold depositors.
The association will also take out a procession from Tummalapalli Kalakshetram to the Dharna Chowk here as part of the protest.
Addressing the media on Thursday, association honorary president and CPI State assistant secretary M. Nageswara Rao appealed to the government to take steps to make the payments to the victims who had deposited ₹20,000 and above in the company. “The victims have been waiting for the amount for the past seven years,” he said.
