The Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) has demanded that the Congress government in Telangana announce a relief of ₹25,000 per acre to farmers whose crops have withered and were abandoned due to lack of water for irrigation despite efforts to protect crops by sinking new borewells as also those suffered crop loss due to untimely rain, hails and gales. The opposition party, comprising of T. Harish Rao, Kadiyam Srihari, Satyavathi Rathod, Errabelli Dayakar Rao, and Peddi Sudarshan Reddy, visited Chintabai Thanda in Devaruppala mandal of Palakurthi constituency in Jangaon district to examine the withered crops. The farmers expressed their grievances and discussed the loss suffered due to crop damage. They explained that the borewells had gone dry due to lack of water release to canals and their efforts to save the crops with new borewells had failed due to lack of groundwater. Mr. Harish Rao highlighted the distressing conditions faced by farmers in the state and criticized the government for failing to fulfill its promises and provide timely relief measures. He cautioned the government against further delays in providing relief to the farming community, threatening a protest at the Secretariat if necessary.
