Farmers can change government, says KCR in Chandigarh

Chandigarh: Telangana chief minister K Chandrashekar Rao on Sunday here said farmers can change government if they want and they should keep fighting till they get a constitutional guarantee for remunerative prices of their crops. The Telangana chief minister also paid tributes to the farmers who died during the course of the agitation against the Centre’s now-repealed farm laws. “I bow to farmers for their grit and determination”, the CM said referring to the year-long stir that ended last year. “If farmers want, they can change government. It is not a big thing. From where the power comes, it comes from us. Agitation should continue till farmers get the right price and there is a constitutional guarantee for it,” he said.
