Jadhav Devrao, 54, a farmer from Bela Mandal in Adilabad, Telangana, tragically committed suicide at a nearby ICICI Bank office on January 18, 2025. Devrao was having trouble repaying a loan of ₹3.4 lakh that he had taken out in 2019 using his five acres of property as security. He said that because he failed to make his October 2024 ₹25,000 installment, bank authorities harassed him. Devrao entered the bank's grounds on the day of the incident and ingested the insecticide Monosil. He was sent to RIMS hospital, but it was not enough to save him. He is survived by his son, Akash Devrao, and his wife, who suffers from kidney disease. In his police complaint, Akash has accused the bank harassment.
Although the initial results of the police inquiry have not yet verified the claims of harassment, the problem has been brought to their attention. Although Devrao had obtained the credit through the PM Kisan Credit Mortgage program, the Congress government's farm loan waiver program did not apply to his loan. Mortgage loans, such as Devrao's, were not covered by the program, but loans up to ₹2 lakh were. Political reactions have been triggered by the tragedy. On social media, Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) working president KT Rama Rao attacked the Congress administration. He revealed the bank's CCTV footage and referred to the incident as the consequence of the government's "failed governance."
"This is daylight murder of a Telangana farmer by your Congress government," said Rama Rao, expressing his ire. 50-year-old tribal farmer Jadhav Devrao felt that his only choice was to take his own life after you failed to fulfill your promises. He left his sick wife and son behind and ingested poison in the bank. all as a result of your broken promises. He further accused the Congress government of failing to fulfill its promises, saying that the government's Rythu Bharosa scheme was ineffectual and that less than 40% of farmers were given the ₹2 lakh farm debt waiver. In closing, he urged the Congress to recognize the hardships faced by Telangana farmers and to take action to alleviate their issues.
