He called the decision a “hypocritical Congress brand fraud” and expressed his anger on social media.
“The Congress promised a Rs. 500 bonus for all paddy variety crops in their guarantee card, before the elections. Now they say it’s only for a fine variety of paddy. This is deceit and hypocrisy,” said Rama Rao, declaring that this is not people’s governance (Praja Palana), but an anti-farmer rule.

Taking to X, the BRS working president pointed out the Congress government’s failures including lack of irrigation water supply, power supply and compensation to crop loss due to unseasonal rains. He reminded that the State government was yet to provide Rs. 15,000 per acre to farmers and Rs. 12,000 per acre to agricultural labourers under Rythu Bharosa.
“They also promised a Rs. 2 lakh crop loan waiver by December 9 but did not deliver. Now, their deceit is clear with regards to the bonus for paddy crops, he added. (Maxim News)
