Scores of farmers led by CPI (M) and Congress leaders lay siege to Andhra Bank branch at Jangapalally in Mulugu mandal of Warangal on Friday. Demanding that the bank should grant them new loans taking ‘Pahani Nakhal’, they stopped officials from opening the branch from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Farmers said that the banks were demanding Pattadhar passbooks to grant new loans, but they were already with them against old loans.
