India Today|December 06, 2021

Chandrashekar Rao (KCR) sat on a dharna and gave the Union govern­ment two days, until the afternoon of November 20, to procure at least 90 per cent of the paddy produced in the state, like in Punjab, and fix a Minimum Support Price (MSP).

But with the Cen tre ignoring his demand and announcing repeal of the farm laws on November 19, KCR shifted camp to Delhi to pursue his state’s demand and join hands with the farm­ ers continuing their protests till the farm laws are repealed in Parliament.
