Why This Apathy Towards Farmers?

Bifurcation may be a boon to the Kalavakuntla family but for the farmers in Telangana, it is one of the darkest periods in their lives as can be gauged by the number of suicides taking place unabated.

The High Court has pulled up KCR umpteen numbers of times on various issues and especially regarding the plight of farmers, but the man sits unmoved like a rock.

What one fails to understand is why steps are not being taken to alleviate their misery even when there are ample funds available?

For instance, in the budget given by the TRS government, Rs 1, 882.05 crore have earmarked for farmers for the months of April to September. Of this amount, the government has spent only 9% of it amounting to Rs 156 crore approximately.

What happened to the rest of the funds and what is the government doing with it?
