Telangana Congress chief spokesperson Sravan Dasoju has charged the government with confusing the farmers with its promise of providing input cost of ₹4,000 per acre per season and linking it with the proposed farmers coordination committees.

At a press conference here on Friday, he demanded that the G.O.39 be withdrawn immediately and call for an all party meeting and take their views in consideration on the important aspect of land survey and the farmer coordination committees. The farmers organisations should also be involved in it. He said it was unfortunate that the government was creating a new unnecessary layer between the the farmers and the government and ultimately it may emerge as a centre for brokers. He said there were 112 Acts with regard to lands and there was a need to study them.
