Hyderabad: A 53-year-old farmer from Telangana’s Nallavalli village died of a heart attack on Sunday, March 23. He was reportedly depressed over his inability to sell his land after the government proposed to set up a dump yard near his village.
The deceased, Nadiminti Krishna, was in deep distress after borrowing loans to conduct his elder daughter’s marriage.
According to his wife Lakshmi, Krishna had decided to sell off his land in order to repay his debts and conduct the marriage. However, the Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation (GHMC) decided to set up a dump yard near the land preventing buyers.
On Sunday morning, Krishna suddenly collapsed to the ground while discussing the issues with his wife. He was rushed to the government hospital in Narsapur where he died while undergoing treatment.
Ever since the GHMC decided to set up a dump yard in Nallavalli and surrounding villagers, villagers have been strongly protesting against it. The farmers have been staging protests for 47 consecutive days. Krishna was amongst the protestors who often enquired about the status of the issue.
