BRS Protests Demand Soybean Procurement in Adilabad
Farmers and leaders from the BRS party protested on a highway in Adilabad.
They want the government to buy soybean from farmers without any rules.
The leaders said the government isn't helping farmers who are suffering because of bad weather and not enough fertilizer.
They also said farmers are having a hard time and some are even thinking of hurting themselves.
The protesters are planning to do more protests to make the government listen to them.
Additionally, they want the government to change how urea is distributed, suggesting a village-wise system instead of using an app, which they say causes problems like black marketing and forced sales of unwanted fertilizers.
BRS leaders and farmers protested on National Highway 353B demanding soybean procurement.
Protesters allege government failure in procuring rain-affected soybean and addressing farmer distress.
