During a protest at Praja Bhavan, police arrested BRS Jogulamba Gadwal district coordinator, Kurva Pallayya. The protest was in response to farmers’ demands, and Pallayya was taken to the Aija Mandal police station.
Speaking about the incident, Pallayya criticized Revanth Reddy, saying that detaining him would not deceive the farmers. He accused the current administration of making false promises to gain power and then failing to fulfill them, leaving farmers in distress.
Pallayya warned that the government’s actions would cause farmers to turn against it. He demanded that the government immediately fulfill its promises to the farmers, particularly:
1. Waiving ₹2 lakh in loans for every farmer without any conditions.
2. Providing the “Rythu Bharosa” (Farmers’ Support) scheme to farmers by the end of September.
He also warned that if these promises are not fulfilled by the end of the month, he is prepared to go on a hunger strike.
