Never seen such an atrocious government, says KCR

BJP wants to push farmers back into poverty, alleges Chief Minister

Chief Minister K. Chandrasekhar Rao has said that he had never come across a Central government as the present one led by the BJP and that he will never see one like this in future.

His words came at a post-Cabinet media conference in the context of Centre’s refusal to purchase paddy produced in the State in the current rabi and its failure to commit itself to the quantity that it proposed to lift in the recent kharif.

He warned that the Centre was bent on seeing farmers in the State doomed for its political gains. This was because it was unable to digest highest production of paddy in the country here which touched a new record of 141 lakh tonnes last year.
