Speaking on the occasion, the Minister said Chief Minister K Chandrashekar Rao was committed to bolster the farm sector and ensure that the farmers benefit financially. Even though many programmes were launched for the well- being of farmers, they were in distress. To make them happy and restore their confidence, the Chief Minister launched Rythu Bandhu scheme, said the Minister.
Nageswara Rao advised the farmers to utilise the money sanctioned to them under Rythu Bandhu scheme for cultivation purpose only. Cheques worth Rs 400 crores were distributed to farmers under scheme in the first phase in the united Khammam district, said the Minister.
