Kakani Alleges Coalition Government Neglected Farmers and Rural Development
Kakani Govardhan Reddy said the coalition government was not doing enough to help farmers.
He said some farmers were struggling because there was not enough rain.
He also said irrigation and drinking water were insufficient.
Kakani claimed the government did not provide help quickly enough.
He said village development had slowed down.
He compared this with the earlier YSRC government, which established village secretariats, farmer centers, and village health clinics.
He also accused police of treating YSRC supporters unfairly.
These statements were allegations made by Kakani during a visit to Akkampeta.
