Farmer Agitation in India

                                                                 The farmer  agitation in India  is drawing attention of world. India is a agriculture country with average income of farmer is less. They are also playing the major part in democratic elections in India. Hence all political parties are playing politics in order to get their support.

                                        In view of above the turmoil of the present farmer agitation has to be viewed. Narendra Modi government got it passed the farmer reform  bills in the last session of Parliament. Narendra  Modi had promised that he will try to increase the farmer income doubled. Narendra Modi is a strong leader and he think that present farmer bills will be very much beneficial  for farmers .  Besides that opposition  is simultaneously playing politics to  increase their voting support in rural areas.  

                                                    Some people think that the farming in advance country like America has the best farm laws and they are doing well in the free economy. But it is not so. Small farmers in America is not doing well in spite of having high tech and mechanized farming. 'Time Magazine' report says even before Corona Crisis American farmers were going  for liquidations as they are indebted very heavily. There is a recession in the farm and dairy products in America. Milk prices are going down in America. There are also cases of suicides among American farmers. It is also reported that migration of population has started from Rural Area to Big Cities due to bad conditions in farming sector. It may happen that 70% of American Rural population may migrate to big cities by 2040.  In view of above context the Indian farm reform has to be carefully viewed.  

                                        The Indian  government is also ready to amend the act as per some of the positive  suggestions of farmer leaders. However farmers have now taken stand to see that Indian government repeal the act entirely. All opposition parties in India are supporting their stand. There is no reasoning and logic in the matter. It seems that is a political move to put government in the embarrassing situation.

                                       There are two main dangerous factors are involve in this agitation. One is anti national elements are inciting and misguiding  farmers and another one is hostile countries towards India have started interfering in the internal matter of India. 

                                                                  Therefore it is  necessary to solve all genuine problems of farmers at the earliest. The elements which are encouraging the agitation unreasonably are playing with the fire. The enemies of India are now taking vicarious pleasure out of present farmer agitation.
