After Telangana's Rs 31,000 cr farm loan waiver, Punjab farmers reiterate similar demand

The Telangana government has announced a farm loan waiver of up to Rs 2 lakh, benefiting nearly 40 lakh farmers at a cost of around Rs 31,000 crore. Punjab farmers have welcomed this decision and renewed their call for a similar waiver from the central government, arguing that the current cash benefit under PM Kisan is insufficient.
