September 26: Siddipet town of Telangana witnessed a unique program named Vanda Chekkulayagnam, which means distributing 100 cheques of 1 lakh each to the families of the farmers who had committed suicide and left them in distress. Chakradhar Goud, a businessman who belongs to the same town, settled in Hyderabad a decade ago and became successful. As a part of giving back to society, he started an organization named Farmer’s first foundation. The foundation’s motto is to educate farmers and bring awareness.
A mere 100 families were selected for the event, which was in total distress and had no other go. To reduce their financial burdens, first, Chakradhar Goud distributed a cheque of 1 lakh each. They are listed and verified by team members of the farmers’ first foundation and a few experts. Most of these families are Kaulurythus, who didn’t get benefits, usually what land owners get in case of death. These 100 benefitting families belong to different districts of Telangana.
Pittala Divyakumari, a distressed farmer from Choppadandi village of Karimnagar district, who received a one lakh cheque, said her husband committed suicide by consuming poison two years ago. Since then, they have been living a helpless life. When she heard about Chakradhar’s charity event, she prayed that she should be included in the list. Now that she has got the cheque, she wants to start a small provision store in her village and secure her children’s life.
