Guntur: Actor-politician Pawan Kalyan on Thursday urged the AP government to exclude Undavalli village from the Land Pooling Scheme (LPS). “Should a capital be built on the tears of farmers?” he asked.

He said he would talk to ministers P. Narayana and P. Pulla Rao who were involved in the land pooling process and then decide on the future course of the action. Pawan Kalyan toured Undavalli, Yerrabalem, Bethapudi and Tullur in the capital area on Thursday.

Chandrababu Naidu, said that he would tour the capital region on March 3, but later postponed it to March 5.
