Farmers cannot runaway from....

This morning in flat 10 minutes BJP got the  2 contrversal "Farmer bills" passed in the Rajaya Sabha through a sham voice voting amidist the panddemonium created by an  urully opposition .Once again our parliamentary democracy witnessed an udemocratic voting  system being  uleashed  No debate. No diascussions , Bill passed..

The two Farmer bills that got passed today were (1) The Farmers' and Produce Trade and Commerce(Promotion and Facilitation) Bill,2020. (2)Farmers(Empwerment and Protection)Agreement on Price Assurance and Farm services Bill,2020.

The above bills that now become a statutory law will  take away a major revenue stream of the States. Additionally it will in times to come bring in big Corporate Houses spreading their wings into Agricultural products. Further since the govt will let go its control on minimum support Price assured to farmers(MSP), the farmers specially the margainilzed farmers will become victims of giant Corporate Houses  Before this Mansoon session comes to an end  a third farm Bill  'The Essential Commodities (Amendment)bill 2020 , will get  passed and when that happens supply of certain items including cereals, pulses, potatoes,onions,edible oilseeds and oils will no more be covered by Essential Commodities Act.. This will in essence  help encourage hoardings and create artificial scarcity  Also  exporting these items will get  de - controlled.Next time when "ONIONS" desappear from the market don't expect the govt to come to your aid. The  giant corporate Houses with large  warehousing facilities are bound to use this law to peak their profit graphs. 

Ambani's Reliance buying  twenty five  thousand crore stake in Future Group is bound to  harvest big time profits out of this . Does it mean Ambani deal was a coincidence or well timed is something best left to reliance  'future' retail business..

Incidentatly the Nation wide Farmers protest and agitations against passing of these bills has now turned out to become another mighty slap on the already 'swollen' faces of the  farmers. 

Some sucides have the  tendecy to stay on media  Head lines for months together but sadly that has never been so when  farmers commit sucide which happens almost every other day. Now with this new farm bills enacted, the  farmers sucide will become politicans working capital to grind their politcal axe. All Politicians accross party lines have one thing in common and that  they all  have 'No conscience 'No morality'. 

Our PM feels his ' Tweets' and 'Maan Ki Baat' are the 'Mul Mantaras'  that can  help the  "FARMERS" to get out of their death and debt trap, unfortunately the farmers don't think so because they are à¤…नपढ़


Passing of these Farmer Bills in the Parliament today makes one thing clear and that is 'our farmers cannot run away from their "HEART TOUCHING PLIGHT" any time soon.

    I was the youngest of the 4 siblings and the only son ,but that  never  made me precious and  pampered by the family. My father was in the army. We all  grew up in cantonment environment, hopping almost every 2 years  from one Cantonment to the other  Like from Allahabad’s Draupadi Ghat we came to Calcutta’s Fort William and  then to  Bangalore Cantonment  Bangalore was the only city where we  remained stationed for almost 5 years before getting  shifted to Delhi Cantonment in 1961, 4th of July to be precis It was the year 1959-60 and I was about 10 years old  studying in the 6th form in the Army’s  Regimental school .

Delhiites have turned   indifferent to the " Toxic Air" that they breath  They have stopped bothering about the "smoke screen " that is keeping away   "Sun light"  from giving them the ray of "HOPE"  to keep their lungs "Sun Shined" . Like "AGE"  for them now  even the  AQI (Air Quality Index) has become a sheer number .They have long since stopped reacting to the AQI  shooting up. They have lost their "JOSH"" to protest for their fundamental right to breath. Delhi is the very seat of the duly elected "POWER".  of  World's largest Democracy  The "custodian" of this Democracy reside here  at   "7 LOK KALYAN"  but remain hardly visible in and around the city This  "custodian"  continues to remain the very "Most"  'Frequent Flier' of our Democracy and  the only  'STAR '  campaigner for the political party that he comes from.    Getting re-elected...

   When you already  know a little about the  book it does create an  interest “Blessed Curse” was just that.  This book is about an  Indian middle class household  that is holding together three generations in generous harmony with all those ifs and buts about the generation gaps  The book undoubtedly is  an inspirational read  especially at a  time when the concept of   “nuclear households", remains a widely spread idea among the Millennials  It recalibrates your mind to question , debate ,accept and  celebrate every generation’s point of view  This book is the story of Jagdamba Prasad & his wife Pushpa Devi living with their son, daughter in law and grandchildren in one of the colonies of East Delhi’. The author in this book takes the reader through good, bad and ugly about each generation. The beauty is, it does not come as a bout of episodes but as “cosy chats” between the members of the family...
