Senior leader of the Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) and Minister for Finance and Health T. Harish Rao has accused the Congress party of snatching the morsel before it has reached the mouth of farmers as its complaint has resulted in the Election Commission withdrawing the permission granted for the disbursement of Rythu Bandhu investment support for the ongoing Rabi/Yasangi season.
Speaking at an election meeting held in support of the party’s candidate for Zaheerabad constituency at Jharasangham on Monday, he said it was the Congress that had complained against Rythu Bandhu disbursement for this crop season but after the explanation given by the State Government on November 18 that it was an ongoing scheme, the Election Commission had issued no objection on November 25.
