Speaking to media persons in Assembly premises here, Jeevan Reddy said that the government should not delay the assessment of losses and a report must be send immediately to the Central Government seeking its assistance. He accused Chief Minister K Chandrashekar Rao of neglecting the welfare of farmers while focusing his attention on issues like shifting of Secretariat or construction of skyways.
