Peddapalli: Ramagiri police reportedly took ten farmers into custody as part of investigation in connection with obtaining crop loans by producing fake pattadar passbooks. Farmers from Ramagiri and Mutharam mandals obtained crop loans from Telangana Gramina Bank, Kalwacherla branch of Ramagiri mandal by producing fake pattadar passbooks.
