State urged to pay arrears to sugarcane farmers

When Chief Minister K. Chandrasekhar Rao was able to spare Rs. 10 crore for Batukamma festival why cannot the government pay Rs. 6 crore arrears due by the Nizam Deccan Sugars Limited (NDSL) to come to the rescue of farmers,” asked M. Kodanda Reddy, president, State Kisan Sangh.  

Demanding the government to take over the Nizam Deccan Sugars Limited (NDSL) and see that all the arrears should be paid to the farmers by the factory management, the Congress leaders along with farmers held dharna and rasta roko at Mambojially near Medak on Tuesday.  Mr. Kodanda Reddy said that the farmers voted for TRS with a trust that it would waive off farm loans, but in reality the farmers were taken for a ride by the government with phased loan waiver
