BRS leader T Jeevan Reddy staged a marathon sit‑in on the Mancherial–Jannaram–Jagtial road demanding Rs 50 lakh compensation for families of four farmers killed in Luxettipet. Despite assurances from officials, he vowed to continue until the government responds, causing traffic disruption.
Farmer Rajaiah, 50, left his home on Friday evening and was found hanging from a tree by locals on Saturday morning. According to his family, Rajaiah, who owned one acre of land, was struggling with severe financial issues and was unable to repay debts from various sources. It is believed that these hardships led him to take his own life.
