Farmers in the border villages have submitted a memorandum to the government, urging it to amend the guidelines for their welfare. In the memorandum, they pointed out that banks were not accepting their applications for loan waiver on the plea that the lands were located in Telangna State. Unfortunately, the Telangana government was also not in a position to waive the loans, as they were sanctioned by banks in Andhra Pradesh. The AP government, however, is yet to respond farmers say.
