Good days have arrived for Telangana farmers,” said Madhu Yaskhi Goud speaking at Gandhi Bhavan.
What’s important in Congress Government’s loan waiver scheme is, farm loans are waived off in one go, unlike in installments done by past Governments. In the first phase Government has released about Rs 6800 Cr towards farm loans up to Rs 1 lakh limit. About 11 lakh farmers are expected to benefit in the first phase.
