The Punjab farm bills look to negate the Centre's laws and ensure minimum support price (MSP) for farmers. They also give powers to the state to impose stock limits.
Opposition AAP and Akali Dal have demanded copies of the proposed legislation against the Modi govt’s farm laws before it is introduced in Punjab assembly.
Congress leader Rahul Gandhi also said if these laws were in favour of farmers and labourers, why didn’t the govt allow a debate before they were passed in Parliament.
Analysts and industry experts say the new rules would make it easier to sell crops, bring more stable income for farmers & increased production would boost exports and revenue.
Farmer leaders from Punjab, who met Union Agriculture Secretary Sanjay Agarwal for an hour Wednesday, were incensed about the absence of any Union minister at the talks.
From a young girl breaking her gullak to fund the morcha to youth with engineering degrees joining the protest, it’s a different farmers’ movement against Modi govt’s farm laws.
India’s civil services were once called the ‘steel frame’. But steel is forged in fire, not moulded in a coaching class. While dilution has made the exam easier, it has also made it harder to find the game-changers we need.
SEBI probe concluded that purported loans and fund transfers were paid back in full and did not amount to deceptive market practices or unreported related party transactions.
Many really smart people now share the position that playing cricket with Pakistan is politically, strategically and morally wrong. It is just a poor appreciation of competitive sport.
Modi couldn’t STOP the ENTITLED RATIONS of the ARMED FORCES. Now he is talking a gamble by drying up the food in farmers kitchens. How cheap can he get ?
He must remember that the ARMED FORCES are disciplined and educated. The FARMERS are not !
I don’t understand why some of the farmers so frightened about the three laws enacted by the Govt. It is well known fact that only 6%of the farmers getting MSP. The rest of the farmers ie 94% are not getting MSP and they are forced to sell their produce to private traders. Only 35% of the total production is being marketed through APMC mandis and the remaining 65% produce is being marketed through village level commission agents. If this type of situation is prevailing in rural areas what is the wrong in enacting pro farmers acts by the Govt.
So it is clear from the survey that even those who are against just have some apprehension, not anything concrete. Going forward as things will unfold people will realise most of it is just fear mongering by the opposition and this protest will loose traction.
its so called experts like this author, dynasties, lutyen, jnu, leftists held industries, farmers backward and poor for 60 plus years. they want farmers to remain poor on freebies for vote bank. even if one does implement the best law in the whole world, at least 50 percent people and experts oppose it. it is beyond ridiculous when people say, they do not know new laws and yet they oppose them. who can make their life better ?
This is what Yogendra Yadav doesnt understand. Had Modi wasted his time on pampering everyone and dancing to their tunes he would have been a status quoist. No leader worth his salt will be ever wanted to be seen like that. Brave and assertive leaders take firm steps which are in the interest of the country, its downtrodden, its marginalised, its farmers etc. They dont pander to the whims and fancies of pressure groups, middlemen. They dont play safe in their own comfort zones. Already news is coming from Maharashtra that some farmers have been contacted by the big companies to pick up their produce. All without middlemen. This is a win win situation. 5hosr who care only for the next election result join the congress while those think from long term perspective are part of Modi’s team. This is the difference which is beyond the comprehension of people like Yadav with limited vision.
Every living organism develops defense mechanism when its existence is threatened by a life threatening virus, bacteria , or fungus. So is the case with human orgnisations or societies formed by the human . The Hindus , — the oldest human orgnisation or entity -is clearly envisaging a threat to its very existence from the Jihadi and terrorists organisations. So it is but natural for Hindu Majority in to develop its defenses and The Hindu Right seems to be only CHOICE. Today some 40-45% of Hindus have veered round to this view , TOMORROW , When threat perception increases , it may go to 80-90% of the Hindus voting for The Hindu Right –irrespective of the name of the party. ( Imean to say ,not necessary BJP , it could be even a Indian National Hindu Congress. ) IF Hindus have to survive they have to develop its own defense mechanism.
When marketing opportunities are being expanded for farmers, one fails to understand how it is going to harm the farming community ? Do leftist and JNU wala, jholawalas think that all wisdom lies in their tiny heads ? There are many countries and societies on this planet , how many of them have system of state sponsored MSP ? If farm product need support from Government in pricing of their products , Why Industry should be deprived of the privilege of ASSURED PRICES ? They too employ a large portion of population , They too make big investments in plant and machinery, technology ,Capital . They develop the market for their products on its own . Leftist opposed Reforms of Indian economy in 1991 also , when Narsimha Rao Government had thrown the Nehruvian Regimes polices in dustbin and embarked upon ECONOMIC REFORMS to bring India out of Nehruvian DYNASTIC Model of poverty perpetuation by doing away with LICENCE-QUOTA-PERMIT RAJ. But they should keep in mind History, Economy and FATE of NATIONS have its own way of moving. Modi is not Economic Reformer in strict sense. But BE ASSURED , he will be followed by a ULTRA-RIGHT Reformer. Till then person like YY should support Modi as his successor may bring more heartburn for leftists.
यह सब विरोध करने वाले अवसर की तलाश में थे ओर उनको बहाना मिल गया। सब के सब ऊंची जाति के privilged class जट हैं जो दलितों को पास फटकने भी नही देते ओर उनको गरीब जनता कह कर पुकारते है। जिन्होंने दलितों के लिए अलग गुरुद्वारा अलग श्मशान, अलग धर्मशाला ,अलग मोहल्ला जिसे वेहढ़ा भी कहते।

LOL, fakery galore by a fraudster. Guys like this writer want the farmers to remain at the mercy of political forces at the altar of their discredited ideology or worse, their personal ambitions. They are trying desperately to make an issue out of a non-issue. Good luck, your days in public life are numbered; you will become irrelevant very soon.
I am a farmer and i want msp and if i am wrong for seeking the best return on my investment, then why is it the city dwellers such as yourself whine so much that your are paying so much for your electricity bill.
Yogendra Yadav May try everything in his book , Indian formers believe more in Modi then a communist who changed his name from Salem to Yogendra Yadav , I expect Shekhar Guptha another Muslim appeaser not to delete my comment.
No we dont belive in modi. He is not trust worthy and if you got your 15 lakhs. Please tell me otherwise.
And yet there is no MSP for vegetables, fruits and tea and coffee, jute, rubber and many more. If the system of MSP was gold standard, one wonders why these are not included?
Because traders would not be able to make a killing selling a onion worth 10 rs to you for 80 rs per kg.
Can any section of the society hold it’s people to ransom just on fears of what MAY happen In the process allowing vested interests to further stoke the fears.
