Naidu threatens of farmers' revolt

 Telugu Desam Party president N Chandrababu Naidu on Wednesday stated that the hapless farmers in the State would soon revolt against the indifferent State Government.

Talking to media persons before proceeding to Khammam district from Vijayawada as a part of Rythu Poru padyatra, Chandrababu Naidu expressed serious concern over the pathetic condition of farmers in the state. He said that the government should at least open its eyes now and take steps for redressing farmers’ woes.

The TDP chief said that all farmers including tenant and farm labourers, who are dependent on the farm lands, are in a pathetic situation due to drought. He said that Chief Minister N Kiran Kumar Reddy has totally failed in providing required help to the drought affected farmers. Stating that the TDP's Rythu Poru has created awareness among farmers, he said that the farmers in the State were ready to revolt against the government anytime.

“The day is near when all the farmers in the state will revolt against the government,” Naidu stated. He said that he would continue his Porubata in 23 districts in the state and organize farmers for the agitation until the government resolves their problems.
