Grill BRS at Rythu Vedikas on its failed promises: Revanth to farmers

Defending himself from Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) criticism against his comments made in the USA, Telangana Pradesh Congress Committee (TPCC) president A. Revanth Reddy intensified his attack against the ruling party and accused it of “trying to do politics with farmers”.

He called upon farmers to use Rythu Vedikas, set up for them, to grill ruling party leaders on ‘failed promises’. The TPCC president assured farmers that the Congress would stand by them till the end in their fight against the government.

“BRS is doing politics with farmers. As a step in that direction, it is going to use the Rythu Vedikas, which were not used so far, as political platforms. Farm loan waiver has become a never-ending dream for several farmers. There are about 31 lakh farmers eligible for farm loan waiver to the tune of ₹20,000 crore,” said Mr. Revanth Reddy in an open letter to farmers here on Sunday.
