P. Ramesh was a farmer from Tirumalagiri village of Regonda mandal of Bhupalpally district. He ended his life by consuming pesticide on August 24, 2016.
Ramesh had one acre land for himself and leased out another two acres land to cultivate cotton and red chilli. However, as the crops failed he committed suicide unable to find a way out from the debt trap. He is survived by wife Rajitha, son Bhanu Prasad and daughter Likhita. Now Bhanu Prasad has completed Intermediate and Likhita is in Intermediate second year.
Since 2016, Rajitha has been moving around offices of mandal revenue officer (MRO), Revenue Divisional Officer (RDO) and Collector, seeking compensation under G.O. 194. Finally, almost after six years, last month the revenue officials visited the house of Ms. Rajitha and conducted an inquiry. They collected details from Rajitha and others in addition to gathering information from neighbours. She was asked to come to collectroate on October 10 and meet the officials in this regard.
