Narketpally (Nalgonda): District In-charge Collector V Chandra Shekar has directed the officials of Cotton Corporation of India to buy the cotton from farmers as per the rules and regulations and not to create any problems to them while buying the produce.
On Thursday, he made a surprise visit to Varalaxmi Ginning Mill located at Chowdavaram village of Narketpaly mandal in the district. The farmers at the mill poured to the In-charge Collector about their plight and informed that management of ginning mill was not buying their cotton citing more moisture and low quality.
