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.

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 अनपढ़
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.
