Dear Sir/Madam,
Package of Relief Measures for the Debt Stressed Farmers of
25 Districts in the States of Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka & Kerala-UCBs
For mitigating the distress of farmers in the following 25 debt stressed districts of Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka and Kerala, the Union Government has approved a package which, besides other items, has a component relating to agriculture credit.

Name of the State |
Name of the Affected Districts |
| 01 |
Andhra Pradesh (16) |
Prakasam, Guntur, Nellore, Chittor, Cuddapah, Anantapur, Kurnool, Adilabad, Karimnagar, Khammam, Mahabubnagar, Medak, Nalgonda, Nizamabad, Rangareddy and Warangal |

2. The component relating to Agriculture Credit includes the following:
(i) The entire interest on overdue loans as on July 01, 2006 will be waived in the above 25 affected districts and all farmers will have no past interest burden as on that date, so that they will immediately be eligible for fresh loans from the banking system.
(ii) The overdue loans of the farmers as on July 01, 2006 will be rescheduled over a period of 3-5 years with a one-year moratorium.
(iii) A credit flow of Rs.13,817.78 crore, Rs.3,076.20 crore and Rs.1,945.07 crore will be ensured in the above debt stressed districts of Andhra Pradesh, Karnakata and Kerala respectively in 2006-07.
3. The burden of waiver of overdue interest will be shared equally by the State and Central Governments. While apportioning the overdue interest as above, due care will be taken to offset releases if any, already made by the State Government on this count.
4. You are, therefore, advised to ensure that all the farmers' loan-accounts in the specified districts, which are overdue as on July 01, 2006, are rescheduled on the lines of the package and the interest thereon (as on July 01, 2006) is fully waived. Fresh finance may be ensured to such farmers. The total amount of credit envisaged to be released by banks in the three States will be allocated by the respective SLBC Convenors among the banks functioning in the districts.
5. The amount of interest waived (State wise) may be advised to the SLBC Convenor Bank of the respective State and to our respective Regional Offices in a consolidated manner in the enclosed format (Annex - I) in order to enable us to reimburse the same. While the branches may provide information to the Controlling / Head Office as per Annex - III, the latter may maintain branch-wise information in the format given in Annex -II for the purpose of RBI Inspection and State Government Audit.
Yours faithfully,
(N.S.Vishwanathan)
