The Dy CM stated that due to problems in the agriculture sector, at least 3 lakh agriculture workers in the districts like East and West Godavari migrated to Hyderabad to take up other works. They are settled as construction labourers or in other works. He stated that the government is trying to create confidence among such people in the state and brought the new Land Title Act. He said that if the governments create confidence among farmers and tenants then they will continue cultivation.

The Minister, earlier addressed Joint Collectors' conference and directed the officials to create awareness among all the farming community across the state about the scheme.
