Mandya: With the nearly century old prestigious MySugar factory in Mandya having stopped crushing of sugarcane for years, Mandya MP Sumalatha Ambarish has promised to lead a stir in front of the Sugar Minister’s residence at Bengaluru if measures were not taken for re-starting sugarcane crushing at the earliest.
Presiding over a meeting with sugarcane growers at the Deputy Commissioner’s Office here on Saturday, Sumalatha said that the State Cabinet is expected to take up the issue of re-starting MySugar factory and the problems of sugarcane growers after the announcement of by-election results. Pointing out that Sugar Minister Shivaram Hebbar has already been warned of a stir in front of his Bengaluru residence if the sugarcane growers’ problems were not addressed, the MP appealed the farmers not to get emotional over MySugar issue and re-assured her support for the stir.
