Chandrababu Naidu anti-farmer

Hyderabad: YSR Congress has said that Chandrababu Naidu has been blowing the trumpet at Davos that agriculture is lush in the state while in reality the facts are otherwise. ‘Chandrababu Naidu has been adopting anti-farmer policies whenever he was in power and this term is no exception. Farmers are in distress and the yield has come along with the extent of land taken up for agriculture,’ party Farmers’ Cell Convenor MVS Nagi Reddy told reporters here today.

The anti-farmer policy of Chandrababu Naidu has been exposed once again with the appointment of McKinsey and Company as advisors to the Government. It was the same company which had recommended drastic cuts in agriculture during its previous term in the same capacity with the same Chief Minister.


This shows what is in store for the farmers. Chandrababu Naidu speaking that farm sector is lush and business opportunities can be explored in agriculture does not sync with reality, he said. Paddy, cotton, oilseeds, turmeric, pulses and all crops are not getting the MSP and farmers are at a loss and are going into a debt trap, he said.
