Bank officials seize farmer’s gate in Jangaon; KTR questions Congress double standards

BRS working president KT Rama Rao lashed out at the Congress government for the plight of farmers who were struggling to repay loans and suffering the wrath of the bank officials due to lack of government support

Hyderabad: BRS working president KT Rama Rao on Thursday lashed out at the Congress government for the plight of farmers who were struggling to repay loans and suffering the wrath of the bank officials due to lack of government support. He shared reports on District Cooperative Bank officials confiscating the entrance gate of a farmer’s residence in Edunuthala village in Jangaon district recently.

Taking to X, Rama Rao said poor farmers were facing severe consequences for non-payment of loans, despite the Congress making tall claims of supporting them. He said the Congress rule had brought back the dark days of the past where farmers were locked up, gold ornaments were confiscated, and even household doors and equipment were taken away for failing to clear their debts.

He questioned whether similar treatment would be meted out to Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy, who had promised a Rs 2 lakh loan waiver for farmers but was yet to fulfill it.

“How could there be different rules for farmers and those in power?” he asked, warning that farmers were closely watching and would not remain silent if the injustice continued. He remarked that farmers would not allow Congress leaders to step into their homes for its failed promises.

రుణం కట్టలేదని.. ఇంత దారుణమా ?

నాటి కాంగ్రెస్ పాలనలో..
అన్నదాతలు అప్పు కట్టలేదని..
ఆడబిడ్డల పుస్తెలు లాక్కెళ్లే దుస్థితి..
రైతుల ఇళ్ల దర్వజాలు తీసుకెళ్లే పరిస్థితి..
కరెంట్ మోటర్లు, స్టార్టర్లు తీసుకెళ్లే దైన్యస్థితి..

స్వరాష్ట్రంలో కాంగ్రెస్ అధికారంలోకి వచ్చింది..
