Telangana BJP to launch state-wide stirs to highlight plight of farmers

Deccan Chronicle  

HYDERABAD: As the BRS gears up for the 2023 Assembly elections with its campaign slogan 'Ab ki baar, kisan sarkar' hoping that its "farmer-friendly promises" will pay off electoral dividends, the state BJP has drawn up a comprehensive strategy to reach out to the farmers through state-wide agitations by holding 10,000 meetings after Sankranti under the slogan 'KCR hatao, Telangana bachao'. During the agitations, the BJP's key focus will be understanding the plight of farmers, as well as highlighting the BRS government's failings in keeping promises and causing farmers untold misery, senior BJP leader and Rajya Sabha member Dr K. Laxman stated. Dr Laxman told reporters on Friday that the draft master plan for the proposed industrial zone in Kamareddy was just one example of how the "KCR government has become a broker for other land grabbers, and is robbing farmers of their lands under the guise of master plans and metros, and other projects. The government was providing Rythu Bandhu funds to such landgrabbers, and real estate businessmen who have occupied farm land in the state.” The government must disclose how much of the Rythu Bandhu funds were disbursed.
