Set up helpline for farmers in every RBK, CM tells officials
Chief Minister Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy has asked the officials to take necessary measures to ensure payment within 21 days of procurement of paddy. The officials have to lay a special emphasis on payments to farmers, he said.
The Chief Minister held a review meeting on procurement of paddy with the officials of the Agriculture and Civil Supplies department on Monday.
He said there was no involvement of millers in procurement of paddy. The scope for cheating farmers under the pretext of quality check should be eliminated. The rice exports to other countries need to be done by the State government directly. In a way, it would help the farmers as well, he said.
