R S PURA, Sept 24: Twin Farm Bills passed in the Parliament are aimed to tarnish the farmers and landowners of the nation stated Incharge Pradesh Youth Congress J&K and Secretary Indian Youth Congress, Harsimran Kour Bajwa While leading a Mashaal rally held against the anti-farmers Bills at RS Pura, t
He said that the farmers will only be in loss due to this Bill as the government has allowed the big corporate houses and businesses establishments to overtake the farming sector.
“The produce to which farmers are sole owners and decided its price at Mandi level directly will be now replaced by big corporate sectors,” she said and added that APMC will be replaced by Minimum Support Price (MSP) wherein farmers will not have direct hand over their produce and its price.
“Government should declare in writing the MSP of farmers’ produce prior to handing over to these corporate houses,” Bajwa said, adding “Farmers will have no contact with the bulk buyers as it used to be at Mandi level.”
The Mashaal rally was organized by Neeraj Choudhary, District President JKPYC on the directions of Uday Chib, President JKPYC in which hundreds of Youth Congress activists led by Bajwa assembled outside SDM Office RS Pura and took out a rally.
Neeraj Choudhary said that BJP has failed to provide compensation for the 2015 hailstorm affecting farmers which has been pending for the last five years. “Firstly, BJP dusted down the employment, GDP and economy of the nation and further the party came up with the anti-farmer’s policy hence enslaving them to big corporate sectors.
“Our nation will go backwards by over 70 years by these ill treated and anti-farmers policies of the BJP-led government,” Choudhary said.
Regarding the farmers suicide cases she said the enslaving the farmers will apparently lead to the same. “The report of Swamynathan is yet to be implemented,” he said.
Choudhary asked BJP to revoke such controversial Bills and fix MSP for their crops so that no more farmers will commit suicide in near future and will also get their adequate money by selling their produce in the market.
Among others who were present included Ricky Dalotra, Sahil Singh Langeh, Latish Sharma, Nimrandeep Singh, Ranjeet Chopra, Ankush Sharma and Divyansh. |
