Moreover, it is also buying the crop produced by the farmers in their respective villages only for the convenience of the farmers.
The Telangana government has also come up with Rythu Vedika's, which will help the farmers even more, apart from this supply of electricity for 24 hours a day and water for irrigation purpose is also major concern of the government said Ravi Shankar.
