The Minister said that the farmers were unable to sell their produce due to the Union government’s stubborn attitude. He charged that the Centre was irresponsible and refusing to procure paddy.
He recalled that Telangana Chief Minister K Chandrasekhar Rao had spoken to top leaders of the Union government, but they were not concerned for the agrarian community.
Indrakaran Reddy further said that FCI expressed its inability to procure paddy claiming that it had sufficient grains for four more years. He requested the Union government to understand the situation of the hapless farmers.
