Free power supply to Telangana farmers, discussing more options: Congress
The Congress’ Telangana in-charge Manikrao Thakre on Wednesday said free power supply to farmers will be among the Assembly poll promises of his party and it is considering what more can be provided to them.
His comments come in the wake of state Congress president A Revanth Reddy’s alleged remarks that three hours of free power is enough for farmers and that round-the-clock free electricity supply is not required.
While Reddy, who is currently on a visit to the United States, denied making any such remark, Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) MLC K Kavitha and other party leaders in Telangana held protests in Hyderabad against the Congress.
