Telangana BJP Kisan Morcha To Launch Massive Campaign Demanding Implementation of Farm Loan Waiver Scheme

On Thursday, the Telangana BJP Kisan Morcha made the announcement that it would begin a signature-campaign throughout the state to call for the implementation of farm loan waiver scheme, Kisan Bhima Yojana and to put more pressure on the TRS, the state's ruling party, for its neglect of the farming community.

At a press conference, Kishan Morcha President Sridhar Reddy announced that they will begin gathering signatures of farmers on Saturday (July 16) who had not received loan waivers from banks.

"We shall unite farmers against the TRS government and remind farmers of the TRS government's unfulfilled promises," Sridhar continued.

The committee, charged with focusing on TRS shortcomings, has chosen to conduct a detailed investigation into the problems stated in the RTI request made by BJP state leader Bandi Sanjay. To explore the problems to criticise the TRS administration, the committee met on Thursday.

In a similar incident, Droupadi Murmu, the NDA's presidential candidate, met with three BJP MLAs in Goa: T Raja Singh, M. Rahunandan Rao, and Eatala Rajender. On Saturday, BJP MPs were all called to Delhi to begin preparations for the presidential election.

In another instance, under the Rythu Bandhu scheme, the Telangana government has so far granted 64 lakh farmers a total of Rs. 6,765 crore in the kharif season. In accordance with the scheme, farmers receive Rs 5,000 each throughout the Kharif and Rabi seasons for each acre of land they own.

The scheme intends to assist farmers in purchasing inputs like seeds and pesticides in advance of the two agricultural seasons. This year, unlike past years when payments were announced in the first week of June, the disbursals were delayed.
