Farm laws not binding on T govt: Revanth
Description
Hyderabad: State Congress working president A Revanth Reddy on Wednesday said that the new Central farm laws are not binding on the state government as agriculture is in the concurrent list. “The state government can reject implementation of the farm laws by passing a resolution in the assembly,” he said. Stating that chief minister K Chandrasekhar Rao is trying to mislead the farmers by projecting that he cannot do anything but implement the new farm laws, Revanth said the state government has the power to reject the implementation of the central farm laws by passing a resolution in the state assembly. “KCR, who calls himself a farmer, should stand by the peasants and ensure that the anti-farmer policies of the Modi-government are not implemented in Telangana,” Revanth said.
