Jagan betrayed farmers on Rythu Bharosa benefit, alleges former MLA
Telugu Desam Party (TDP) former MLA Dhulipalla Narendra Kumar has slammed the State government for making “false claims” on growth of the farm sector in the State. The national level reports point out that 93% farmers’ families were stuck in debts in Andhra Pradesh, he pointed out.
Addressing a press conference on Wednesday, Mr. Narendra asserted that the ruling YSRCP betrayed the farmers on all fronts during the past two and half years. Chief Minister Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy promised in his election manifesto to pay ₹12,500 to every farmer under Rythu Bharosa, but he was giving just ₹7,500 after coming to power. This came to ₹13,500 along with ₹6,000 being given by the Central Government. The national level programmes and funds were being used for the publicity of the Chief Minister, he alleged.
