Will raise it in Assembly, says CLP leader
Congress Legislature Party (CLP) leader Bhatti Vikramarka has warned that the very survival of farmers was at stake due to the new farm laws that will bring in corporate farming driving away small and marginal farmers.
Speaking to farmers at Tandra in Kalwakurthy as a part of his ‘Face-to-Face with Farmers’, he said while the farmers were in fear on their future with the new laws none of the Telangana ministers were siding with them in this hour of crisis.
In fact, their fears have doubled after Chief Minister K. Chandrasekhar Rao announced that the government would not buy the crop from the next season. Is it due to the new farm laws, he asked the CM to clarify. He said his meeting with farmers throughout the State was to understand their fears and raise it in the Assembly seeking answers from the government.
