Says Congress juggling with broken promises and diversion tactics, taking farmers for granted
Hyderabad: Rebuking the Congress government over the handling of agrarian and economic issues, BRS working president KT Rama Rao on Monday questioned the neglect of Telangana’s farmers who were facing hurdles due to delayed paddy procurement.
He slammed the State government for making farmers suffer and undergoing trouble due to the State government’s apathy for both Dasara and Diwali festivals.
“Farmers are awaiting to sell their paddy at purchase centres for the past few days, but the authorities fail to act,” he said, condemning the Congress government’s lack of initiative in speeding up paddy procurement.
He stated that the Congress is only juggling with broken promises and diversion tactics, while taking farmers for granted.
He urged the Congress to set aside its “monster games in politics” and prioritise genuine support for farmers instead.
In a series of posts on X, the BRS working president also accused contractors and Congress-affiliated groups of rampant looting of Telangana‘s natural resources.
He likened their governance to a kingdom of “Isukasura, Bakasura and Bhasmasura,” referring to mythological demons, for indulging in backdoor deals and exploitation of public resources.
“Villages are being pillaged and sand is being hoarded illegally in broad daylight,” he said, calling out dark deals allegedly being struck to hoard sand.
