Mr Kishan Reddy speaking at the dharna said that in the past 17 months, around 1,200 farmers committed suicide with KCR’s native Medak district being the highest with 200 farmers’ suicides. Demanding immediate declaration of drought mandals in the state, the BJP President said that the issue will be raised in the Assembly.
