AP Govt To Announce Drought-Affected Mandals Soon

The Andhra Pradesh govt is expected to announce the drought-affected mandals on Oct 1. Farmers who incur crop losses in the identified areas may receive input subsidies as relief. Banks are expected to temporarily suspend crop-loan recovery and facilitate loan rescheduling. The measures are aimed at easing the burden on farmers affected by drought conditions.
