Vegetable farmers to get priority at new Rythu Bazaar
In a town called Karimnagar, the city built a brand-new market for selling vegetables.
Now, the person in charge said the farmers who grow the vegetables will get the first choice of stalls.
This makes the farmers very happy.
Many of them used to sell their vegetables at an older market called Kashmirgadda.
People who sold there before will be picked first for the new stalls.
The new market cost about 10 crore rupees to build, which is a lot of money.
A group called the Small Farmers Welfare Association asked for the stalls to be given to farmers.
That way, farmers can sell fresh vegetables directly to the people who buy them.
This helps farmers earn more money and live better.
Deputy Mayor and former Mayor Yadagiri Sunil Rao said vegetable farmers will get priority in stall allotment at Karimnagar's newly constructed Rythu Bazaar.
Farmers who previously sold their produce at the Kashmirgadda Rythu Bazaar will be given preference.
The Small Farmers Welfare Association submitted a memorandum seeking exclusive allotment of stalls to farmers.
The new market was constructed at a cost of nearly ₹10 crore.
Association president Konukati Lachireddy and other office-bearers were present at the meeting.
