Telangana Pradesh Congress Committee (TPCC) has decided to extend the Rythu Rachhabanda programme to propagate the Warangal (Rythu) Declaration of the party announced by AICC leader Rahul Gandhi.
The decision was taken at a meeting held with District Congress Committee (DCC) presidents and attended by AICC in-charge of party affairs in Telangana Manickam Tagore, TPCC president A. Revanth Reddy, working president of TPCC and AICC secretaries from the State. According to party leaders, the interaction programme with farmers has been completed in 70% of villages in the State so far.
Giving details of the meeting, working president of TPCC M. Mahesh Kumar Goud said farmers in the State were unable to get support price to any of their produce and on an average three farmers and two unemployed youths were ending lives in Telangana every day due distress caused by indebtedness, family problems, unremunerative farming and lack of employment opportunities. Except for TRS leaders, nobody was getting any ‘justice’ in the State, he alleged.
