Faulty land records denies Rythu Bandhu to farmers in 4 villages

They are unable to sell their lands as well

Several farmers missed out the crop investment support Rythu Bandhu as their names were excluded from list of beneficiaries. Worse it it is not a few individuals, but all farmers in a number of villages. Farmer from four villages — Nagireddy Gudem, Picheryagadi, Satwar and Kondakal — are not only not enjoying the benefits of Rythu Bandhu and Rythu Bima, but also are unable to get crop loans from banks. Adding to their woes they cannot even sell their land, for any emergency or requirement. For instance there are 200 farmers of Nagireddygudem in Gummadidala mandal who own the 338 acres of patta land spread across two survey numbers. Till the formation of Telangana State these farmer possessed pattadar passbooks and used to avail loans from banks. However, after the government of newly formed Telangana State started purification of land records, officials found, during enquiry, that there was wast difference between the land owned by the farmers as per documents and in their physical possession.
