Ahead of the announcement by Chief Minister K. Chandrasekhar Rao on disbursal of Rythu Bandhu funds to farmers from June 28, the Telangana Congress organised rallies in the State and its leaders also met the Agriculture Commissioner Raghunandan Rao.
While TPCC president A. Revanth Reddy wrote a letter to the Chief Minister demanding the release of funds immediately as the farmers were now forced to go to private money lenders with the agriculture season picking up. He said the if the government doesn’t have funds for the scheme it should immediately inform the farmers.
Mr. Reddy said KCR is not appearing in public thus putting doubts on the continuation of the scheme and one thought at least the Finance Minister would review and reveal the details. But he is more interested in politicking than governance, he charged.
