Telangana Farmers' Families Question KCR On Delayed Compensation

Telangana Chief Minister K Chandrasekhar Rao last month said his government would give Rs. 3 lakh to the families of each of the 750 farmers who died during protests against the (now scrapped) farm laws. The grand gesture by KCR, as the Chief Minister is known, was widely seen as an indication of his building a national political profile ahead of Lok Sabha polls in 2024. However, in his own state, the families of thousands of farmers who died by suicide remain without compensation. With no help in sight, they have been forced to take to the streets. This was three months after NDTV showed that even those whose payments were sanctioned had not been paid.
