Bandi Atmakur (Nandyal): Farmers in Bandi Atmakur mandal in Nandyal district has urged the officials concerned to save their crops from being damaged by the pigs. With that demand, the farmers submitted a representation to the Mandal Parishad Development Officer (MPDO) Vasu Deva Gupta and MPP Devareddy Chinna Sanjeeva Reddy to take steps to catch the pigs on Wednesday.
According to the farmers, the pig rearers are abandoning the stray animals on the roads instead of keeping them in a fence. Due to this the stray animals are roaming freely in the residential streets and at the surroundings of hotels. In recent times, the pigs are venturing into the paddy fields, stated the farmers. After venturing, the pigs not only eat the yield but also destroying the entire crop. In fact, the pigs have made the paddy fields a safe shelter for sleeping.
