The last Congress government had done much to help the tenant farmers, issued eligibility cards for them to get the bank loan, but the present TRS government has done nothing for them, and because of that their lives have become miserable. The banks which do not lend money to eligible farmers easily, are not providing any financial assistance to the tenant farmers, as the government has not issued any lease cards to them, with this tenant farmers are forced to barrow money from financiers and getting into the debts.
