Jagan distributes Rs.3,923 crore under YSR Rythu Bharosa-PM Kisan

Pathikonda (Kurnool) Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister Y.S Jagan Mohan Reddy on Thursday disbursed financial assistance to farmers for the fifth consecutive year under YSR Rythu Bharosa-PM Kisan today here.

Reddy distributed Rs.3,923.21 crore as the first tranche of this year to 52,30 lakh farmers. With this, each farmer receives Rs.5,500 directly into the bank accounts from the YSRCP Ggovernment and another Rs. 2,000 from the Centre as part of the PM Kisan Yojana.

While speaking at the event, he said "believing farmers' welfare is State welfare...your government has extended support of YSR Rythu Bharosa for the fifth consecutive year which was not mentioned in the manifesto. With this assistance, we have distributed Rs.61,500 to each farmer across the State."

Addressing a huge crowd, he slammed TDP Chief N. Chandrababu Naidu over their recently released 'malafide manifesto.'

The Chief Minister said "Naidu's political philosophy is releasing an attractive manifesto just before elections and backstabbing later. Our manifesto came from the hearts of the people of Andhra Pradesh which I gathered during my padayatra. But Naidu's manifesto was born in Karnataka because he is a non-resident of AP."

In an all-our attack, he alleged that "Naidu is an enemy of farmers..he enacted drama in Rajamahendravaram in the name of Mahanadu. They deceived NTR when he was alive, and now they are claiming him as a Yuga Purush. AP is like Kurukshetra and the next war will be between DPT (Dochuko, Panchuko, Tinuko) & DBT (Direct Benefit Transfer)...so I request you to choose wisely."
