Won't tolerate attempts to give farmers raw deal in paddy purchase: T'gana CM

Telangana Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy on Thursday asserted the government would not tolerate farmers being taken for a ride in the purchase of paddy.
He responded on X (formerly Twitter) to a media report about paddy farmers protesting against low price being offered to their produce at a state-run agriculture market in the district headquarters town of Jangaon.
Reddy said the government would not allow officials and traders to reach a clandestine understanding and give a raw deal to farmers.
He appreciated an official of Jangaon district for not only ordering booking of criminal cases against traders who allegedly sought to give a low price to farmers but also suspended a market official who was ''negligent'' in responding to the farmers' problems.
The Chief Minister urged officials all over the state to be alert with regard to purchase of paddy.
