Hyderabad: The INC leaders all across Telangana held a statewide agitation in different centres both rural and urban targeting the ‘faulty’ farm rules and farmer welfare programmes of the TRS government headed by K Chandrashekar Rao.

The Raithu Porubata as it is called will highlight the meaningless promises of the TRS government and the directionless farm policies of the state government. They termed the TRS government as the ‘enemy of the farmer’
The Telangana INC leaders alleged that the TRS farmer schemes are nothing but vote-making machines, but there is no welfare measure in those policies for the farmers. Participating in the Chopadandi area protest Ex-MP from Ponnam constituency Prabhakar said, TRS is always fooling farmers with fancy names and new schemes which yeild no benefit to farmers, Farmers are struggling with the Dharani portal and CM KCR seems to be least bothered about resolving them.
