Three days after the Election Commission (EC) had accorded permission to the State Government to continue disbursement of Rythu Bandhu money to the farmers, it has abruptly withdrawn the order citing violation of the model code of conduct.
It was only on November 24, the EC had issued an order allowing the BRS Government to continue the Rythu Bandhu disbursement. This was considered a major relief for the BRS Government that led to an uproar from the Congress alleging yet another nexus between the BRS and the BJP.
The benefit was not transferred to the beneficiaries accounts in the past three days. The State Government was getting ready to disburse the benefit from November 28.
