State Ministers and public representatives will stage protest in Delhi on April 11th under the fifth phase. The TRS MPs will also raise the issue in the Parliament. He said the state had been demanding that the Centre should procure the entire paddy as it is procuring from Punjab. “When you can have one nation one ration, why can’t you have One Nation One Procurement,” he asked.

KTR said responding to the state government’s appeal, farmers have not cultivated paddy on 15 lakh acres during Rabi. They took up cultivation on 30 to 35 lakh acres, and it is now the responsibility of the Centre to buy the entire paddy, he added.
