Responding to the chairman's query about the issues faced by the farmers such as Rythu Bima etc, the RDO Vasu Chandra said that there were no problems.
Turning focus on education, Justice Chandraiah told the officials to ensure online classes to all the students, especially those living in remote areas of the district. The responsibility is on Revenue and Panchayat staff to visit villages and enquire about online education.
