Agriculture minister Niranjan Reddy said a section of the media was spreading false news on deaths of farmers. They were portraying the natural deaths as suicides to defame the state government.
The farmers suicides in Telangana is a history. In 2017, there were 846 deaths of farmers and in 2021 a total of 350 deaths were registered.
Whatever be the reason of death, the BRS government is giving Rs. 5 lakh compensation for farmers. It is a unique initiative by the chief minister KCR to save the families of farmers.
