KT Rama Rao calls on farmers arrested for attack on Vikarabad officials

A delegation of BRS leaders led by Rama Rao met the arrested farmers in Sangareddy Jail and expressed their solidarity with them.

The BRS leaders assured them that the BRS would stand by them in their fight against the government's plans to forcibly acquire lands for 'Pharma Village'.

Vikarabad District Collector Prateek Jain and other officials were attacked by a group of villagers in Lagacharla on November 11 during a public hearing on the proposed pharma cluster.

The incident in Kodangal, the constituency of Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy, had created a sensation and triggered a war of words between the ruling Congress and Opposition BRS.
