Yanamala reiterated that smart meters for agriculture connections will become a huge burden on farmers. He said during the TDP regime, 12 lakh farmers were extended loans, and in the present YSRC government, the highest number of farmer suicides are being reported.He accused Jagan of neglecting key sectors of education, health and agriculture and added that the government is fixed on changing names. “In the National Health Index, AP has fallen from the fourth to 10th place,” he pointed out.
