Rythu Bharosa is the first such scheme in the entire country that has instilled confidence in farmers to carry out their agricultural activities without having to depend on private moneylenders, Tourism Minister R.K. Roja asserted on Monday.
Speaking after launching the disbursal of ‘Rythu Bharosa’ payouts into farmers’ bank accounts at Rayalacheruvu in Chandragiri constituency here on Monday, Ms. Roja said that while several State governments had announced welfare schemes for farmers, only the Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy government had the political will to act in their interest.
