“In order to strengthen the farming community and make agriculture a fruitful venture and see smiles on farmers’ faces, the government is spending Rs 12,000 crore annually to provide free power to you (farmers),” Telangana Chief Minister K Chandrasekhar Rao on Sunday said. He further said if opposition parties come to power, then BRS’ flagship schemes like free power, ‘Rythu Bandhu’ financial aid for farmers and ‘Dalit Bandhu’ for SC to start enterprises will all go away.
