Hyderabad: Former Minister and senior BRS MLA T Harish Rao lashed out at the Congress government for pushing Telangana’s farmers into distress by failing to ensure adequate supply of urea.
“While farmers struggle under the scorching sun for urea, the State government is in deep slumber. The very farmers who feed the nation, are being forced to shed tears,” he said, demanding immediate action to resolve the crisis.
In a post on X, Harish Rao pointed out that after police were forced to issue tokens for urea in Mahabubabad recently, similar long queues were now formed in Jagtial. Farmers who struggled to stand in queues for long hours under scorching sun, were seen placing their land pass books and other documents to save their spot in the queue.
He compared the situation to the hardships faced by farmers in undivided Andhra Pradesh under Congress rule, accusing the Revanth Reddy government of bringing back those dark days.
“In Telangana, where farmers were treated like kings under BRS rule, the credit for forcing them back onto the streets goes to Revanth Reddy,” he said.
He slammed the Congress for failing to fulfill promises made in its Farmer Declaration, including loan waivers, farmer assurances, and crop bonuses, calling them empty lies and blatant deception.
