HYDERABAD: While the ruling TRS team led by chief minister K Chandrasekhar Rao has returned from Delhi, the political wrangling over paddy procurement problem is likely to continue for the next couple of weeks in the national capital.
Now, the BJP state unit’s top team led by chief Bandi Sanjay Kumar will be travelling to Delhi in the coming days to meet three Union ministers — Piyush Goyal, food and civil supplies; Parshottam Rupala, fisheries; and Narendra Singh Tomar, agriculture — to seek clarification on paddy procurement and other issues.
Unsatisfied with the Centre’s reaction to their request to provide clarity on concerns, the team plans to meet these ministers mostly during the upcoming Parliament session, according to a top source. The team would also include BJP MPs, Union tourism minister G Kishan Reddy, OBC national morcha president D K Laxman and national executive members DK Aruna and Eatala Rajender.
“We want the Centre to clearly announce how much will be procured,” a party source said.
