Telangana CM Says Rs 6,000 Aid for Farmers by Maha Govt Insufficient

Telangana Chief Minister and BRS chief Ok Chandrasekhar Rao on Sunday stated the Rs 6,000 help for farmers introduced by the Maharashtra authorities was insufficient.

Speaking at a rally in Loha tehsil in Nanded district, round 450 km from Mumbai, Rao advised that the Maharashtra authorities determined to offer this monetary assist to farmers solely after he addressed a rally in Nanded final month.

“I got here right here solely as soon as and a provision to offer every farmer Rs 6,000 per yr was discovered within the Maharashtra funds. Why was it by no means performed earlier? “This assist is like sprinkling water on a fireplace. We don’t need it. We need Rs 10,000 must be given to farmers per acre who can utilise it for investing in agricultural actions,” the Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) leader said.

He claimed the Telangana government under him improved the condition of farmers over years.

“Some eight-nine years ago, Telangana was in bad condition. Farmers were committing suicide in large numbers. But we changed the governance and reduced their burden. If Telangana can improve why a state like Maharashtra which has more resources, cannot improve?” he requested.

Rao reiterated the “Ab Ki Bar, Kisan Sarkar” slogan suggesting a change in the Central government in the 2024 polls.

Former Lok Sabha MP from Maharashtra Haribhau Rathod, ex-MLAs Shankar Dhondge and Harshvardhan Jadhav, and local political leaders joined the BRS in the presence of KCR at the rally on Sunday.  On February 5, KCR had said in Nanded that the time has come for peasants to take the reins of the country and held the Congress and BJP “kasoorwar” (responsible) for the plight of farmers within the nation within the final 75 years.
