Telangana Pradesh Congress Committee (TPCC) president, A. Revanth Reddy dismissed the claims of the Chief Minister, K. Chandrashekhar Rao that Rythu Bandhu would be stopped if Dharani portal was scrapped, and asked whether Rythu Bandhu was not given when Dharani portal didn’t exist at all?
He said the fact is that the Chief Minister is fearing that if Dharani was scrapped all the illegal occupation of lands would be exposed and those involved in them would have to face people’s wrath. “We will scrap Dharani portal as soon as the Congress government comes and ensure those responsible for the illegal occupation and sale of thousands of acres of lands would be sent to jail,” he said.
The Congress president further accused the Chief Minister of instilling fears among the farmers on Rythu Bandhu and said it exposed how frightened Mr. KCR was. The Congress government will bring in changes where farmers’ lands are secured unlike the Dharani portal that was giving sleepless nights to thousands of farmers with their names missing from the list, he said.
