"farmers-welfare"

Still under a shadow of uncertainty on how many farmers would actually benefit from it, the much awaited crop loan waiver scheme was launched here on Thursday.

The Minister was speaking after laying the foundation for digging of a canal in Nandimedaram of Dharmaram mandal on Wednesday.

Ramanna stated that the government was offering the seeds to farmers to encourage them to grow the crop by providing a subsidy of 100 percent.

Says the govt will never go back on farmers' welfare initiatives irrespective of cost involved
