Telangana Agriculture Minister Singireddy Niranjan Reddy, on Friday, attacked the Centre for being against Rythu Bandhu, even though it was a farmer-friendly scheme.

He said that there were Rythu Bandhu, Rythu Bhima, Kalyana Lakshmi, KCR Kit, Mission Bhagiratha and Mission Kakatiya schemes for the benefit of the people and said that farmers who faced hardships in undivided Andhra Pradesh were now able to continue farming peacefully in Telangana.

The Minister also said that Chief Minister KCR initiated revolutionary changes in the field of education by setting up Gurukuls and in the field of medicine by establishing medical colleges. "The opposition parties' criticism and trials will not fetch any result for them as people are with KCR," Singireddy Niranjan Reddy said.
