AP: Ex-minister flays govt. for failure to provide remunerative price to mango farmers

Chittoor, July 7 (UNI) YSRCP senior leader, former Minister and Punganur MLA Peddireddy Ramachandra Reddy today lambasted the coalition government for its failure to support mango farmers. The farmers are reeling from unprecedented losses due to the absence of a minimum support price and the government’s blatant neglect, he slammed.

“Never before have mango farmers faced such dire circumstances,” Reddy asserted, while addressing the media. “The Naidu headed coalition government’s promises of facilitating purchases through pulp factories and holding meetings with officials are mere rhetoric. Nowhere are mangoes being procured at the rates promised. This is nothing short of a catastrophe for farmers, and the government must be held accountable.”
