Transport Minister P Mahender Reddy today reportedly expressed his displeasure over his officials failing to disburse money to farmers for selling their produce.
At a review meeting with Ranga Reddy, Malkajgiri and Vikarabad Collectors, the Transport Minister directed officials to pay farmers their due immediately, and open bank accounts if they had not possessed accounts already.
The demonetization of the two notes affected rural economy severely, however Collectors should help farmers receive the payment for their agricultural produce without any further ado, he directed.
Reddy said that people including farmers, women in SHGs, and students should not face problems while withdrawing money from banks or ATMs.
