TRS slams BJP over farm laws

Description

Hyderabad: The TRS on Sunday charged BJP of making noise over petty issues in Telangana while maintaining silence against the farm laws brought by the NDA government. TRS MLA Kranthi Kiran lashed out at Raghunandan Rao, BJP candidate for Dubbak by-poll, and other leaders from the saffron party for trying to defend the anti-farmer laws. The two anti-farmer laws would not only rob the farmers of getting minimum support price, but the proposed electricity bill of the central government would make it mandatory for the farmers to install meters to their agricultural connections and pump sets. “TRS government is giving free power to the farmers. BJP should first explain to the farmers why the central government passed the anti-farmer laws despite TRS and other opposition parties opposing it,” Kranti said.
