YSRTP Chief YS Sharmila Takes Dig At TRS Govt's 'Bangaru Telangana', Says 'It's Feudalistic Telangana'

She stated that they had petitioned the high court to include farmers beyond the age of 59 in the Rythu Bhima scheme.

Hyderabad: YSR Telangana party president YS Sharmila has criticised the Chief Minister KCR's recent comments of 'Bangaru Telangana'.

Speaking to the media at her party office, she said "Not a Bangaru Telangana but a Feudalistic Telangana" taking a dig at the TRS government.

YS Sharmila also slammed Telangana Minister KT Rama Rao for making provocative remarks about the state's merger with Andhra Pradesh. She questioned how a newly constituted state like Telangana could be merged with Andhra Pradesh again.

 Sharmila said there were more wine shops than Schools and Temples in Telangana.

She stated that they had petitioned the high court to include farmers beyond the age of 59 in the Rythu Bhima scheme.

She claims that the state has roughly 66 lakh farmers, but Rythu Bhima is only qualified for 41 lakh of them. Sharmila questioned whether the government expects farmers over the age of 59 to die. "The state government is neglecting riots, and I demanded that the insurance coverage be increased from 5 lakh to 10 lakh," she stated.

She said, at least the farmers do not even have the freedom to plant the crop of their choice. Dalits are insulted at every step, said Sharmila.
