Subsidy trap is suicidal as it makes governments believe they are doing enough for farmers. It fools farmers & keeps agricultural input industry within licence-quota-subsidy vortex.
One has to be incredibly credulous to buy BJP spin masters’ argument that the government got rid of Vice President Jagdeep Dhankhar for harmonious relationship with the judiciary.
Modi government had also made numerous efforts to establish peace with Pakistan but has now adopted a different path, militarily, to establish peace, adds defence minister.
As Narendra Modi becomes India’s second-longest consecutively serving Prime Minister, we look at how he compares with Indira Gandhi across four key dimensions.
The govt. or admin. is not serious about problem and method proposed by them called insitu or burying the residue in field in impractical for the reason that residue of paddy and root-stem of paddy plant makes sowing of next crop that is wheat very difficult as it does not decompose in the soil. The residue takes more then 6 months to decompose whereas the intermediate period of harvesting and sowing is a month or so. So its a mere eyewash and people are suffocating. Real solutions are needed like small units to process it into paper or packaging material which will be biodegradable. Converting paddy straw to fuel wood or blocks . And also utilising it for electricity production in small thermal plants with necessary changes for particulate matter.
