Hyderabad, Aug.12 (NSS): BRS party working president KT Rama Rao today said agriculture sector was having a tough time under the Congress party’s rule. “In the last one year, the area under cultivation in 15.30 lakh acres in the State has come down. Why is there so much destruction in eight months in a State that has become rice bowl for the country,” he asked.
KTR said there was no assurance to the farmers under the Congress party’s rule. “Apart from muddy politics, there is no knowledge for the ruling party leaders to provide irrigation water on time. The Chief Minister’s words are crossing forts, but his actions are not crossing the secretariat gate. From Adilabad to Alampur, farmers are in a very pathetic situation,” he tweeted.
He claimed that there was a golden age for agriculture under former CM KCR’s rule and added that when the Congress came, it was a tough time for the agriculture sector. “This is the wonder of the Congress government. The area under cultivation in Telangana is facing crisis in front of our eyes. “The area under cultivation in 15.30 lakh acres in just one year. It is the first danger sign for the life of the farmers in Telangana. Why is there so much destruction of agriculture in Telangana, which has become the rice bowl of the country within a decade and within eight months why is there such a crisis in the agriculture sector ,” he asked.
