Seethanagaram (East Godavari): YSR Congress Party General Secretary Bhumana Karunakar Reddy said that his party would stand by the farmers in the state, if elected to power. Speaking to party workers in a meeting organised at Antipeta in the mandal, under the leadership of constituency incharge Alajangi Joga Rao, the YSRCP leader said that there is a serious need to take a look at Telugu Desam Party (TDP) government's wrongdoings. The government has completely ignored the interests of the local sugarcane farmers, Karunakar Reddy said. YSRCP will always strive for the welfare of farmers, backward classes and daily wage labourers, he added.

YSRCP chief YS Jagan Mohan Reddy took up Praja Sankalpa Yatra with an intention to infuse faith into people of the state. YSRCP district political affairs coordinator Majji Srinivasa Rao said that he had requested collector Harijawar Lal to ensure the pending bills of sugarcane farmers were cleared.

If the government doesn't clear the Rs 12 crore worth sugarcane bills by July 09, YSRCP will stage a protest along with the farmers in front of Parvatipuram RDO Ofiice, Srinivasa Rao warned.
