Description
Hyderabad: Telangana Congress working president and Malkajgiri MP A Revanth Reddy on Friday went to Ghazipur border, the agitation site of the farmers, and met farmers’ leader Rakesh Tikait. Revanth invited Rakesh Tikait and other farmer leaders to a public meeting to be organised by Telangana Congress in support of the farmers in Hyderbad and against the three central farm laws in March first week. Revanth said Rakesh Tikait responded positively to his request to address the public meeting. He also informed Tikait and other farmers about Rajiv Rythu Bharosa padayatras taken up by himself and other Congress leaders in Telangana in support of the farmers and said other senior leaders of the party are also expected to take up padayatras demanding MSP and procurement centres.
