“Not stopping there, to reduce the burden on the families because of the high prices, the government took the process of distribution of onions and turmeric to the customers,” Prathipati added. 

Farmers are cooperating with the land pooling - Prathipati Pulla Rao

Land pooling of the Andhra Pradesh, is not heard much after Janasena Chief Pawan Kalyan warned AP government not to force the farmers. In fact, Andhra Pradesh government responded positively towards Pawan Kalyan and said that, it would not force any farmers for land pooling, and take the lands only if they are willing to give them.    

Reacting about the land pooling, Prathipati said that, farmers in the capital region were expressing willingness to part with their lands to the government, through the land pooling scheme. He even assured to resolve the village boundaries issue as early as possible.

On the other side, the recent comments of Congress leader Anam Vivekananda Reddy about the rapport between Andhra Chief Minhster and Pawan Kalyan went viral and the political analysts even could not just deny Anam comments.
