Despite the crisis throughout the state, Vedavyas followed up with authorities and ensured due compensation was released for the second crop to the farmers.[citation needed] U The G.O[further explanation needed] was issued by the Congress government then led by CM Y. S. Rajasekhara Reddy.[citation needed] U
