TRS MLC Karne Prabhakar on Friday described the ‘Kisan Sandesh Yatra’ of AICC Vice-President Rahul Gandhi as a move to save Congress party in Telangana State.
Speaking to media persons at TRS Legislature Party office in Assembly premises here, Prabhakar said Congress party’s love towards farmers was fake. He asked the Congress leaders to clarify on suicides committed by more than 22,000 farmers during their 10 years rule. He said that the Congress party has already lost the trust of farmers and it won’t be able to regain the same by conducting padayatras. He said Rahul Gandhi’s visit to Telangana was not aimed at helping farmers, but intended towards reviving his party.
Prabhakar said that the TRS Government took several measures to help the farmers and the initiatives like crop loan waiver and Mission Kakatiya have helped lakhs of farmers in Telangana. He advised the Congress party to stop misleading the farmers in the State. (INN)
