ready to pay extra tax to govt to offset loss. every body claims to be supporting farmers but in practice no one is. If the farmers demands were to be accepted,the entire economy and baking sector would go for a spin. Are we ready for it??? to give reasonable price, are you as consumers willing to pay higher price for vegetables??? last year 25 paise per litre cess on petrol was fixed to meet latur water crisis,people agitated.

either be public ready to pay extra tax / cess to offset the huge loss due to proposed waiver of agricultural loans or stop shedding crocodile tears. if you want to help farmers by writing off their loan: 1)be ready and willing to pay extra tax /cess 2) do not cry if the prices of agricultural products is increased

dear raja hindustani, do you have any idea how much the govt has to pay as wages and pensions and provide for subsidies.,be it LPG or railway ticket,the list of subsidy is endless even after 7 th pay commission, govt employees are unhappy. shame on all of them as people in private sector work 4 times govt employees at nearly 1/4 salaries
with a rider that "agricultural income" will be treated as normal income and taxed. Agreed that farmers are stressed and have difficulties in dealing with basic things in life , the poor and marginal farmers i.e. but the rich and crorepati farmers are sinking rich at the cost of their brethren. When the state govt (like maha) is in doldrums, unable to generate revenues to meet the normal functions, loan waiver will effectively finish off the govt's governance abilities. There are indeed subsidies included in every agri input already. Its high time for parallel reforms like restructuring agri marketing networks, doubling msp , etc to deal with farm stress. loan waiver serves no purpose but is only a political tool. This is happeneing in maha as it has double back-back drought years. hopefully this year's good rain will reduce the woes.

If Modiji can risk Indian economy by hastily announcing demonetisation, why can't he announce tax on agricultural income?
Indian farmers are upset mainly because all money lenders(incuding public sector banks) exploits them with charging heavy rate of interest.Govt.facilities are on paper only.Farmers do not have marketing platform.Electric companies charges are very high.(Single meter should be given

Partially it is true but Rich farmers take undue advantage of loan waiver, Subsidy, concessional rate of interest, etc Income tax is not paid...Loan waiver by congress had set bad precedent n now opposition ruling parties all woes Kisan... country is divided in Hindus, Muslims, Dalits and now Kisan...after some time SME...NPAs of Banking sector is never going down...

Govt policy is to promote/motivate production whether it is agri sector or industrial sector. It is the duty of govt to provide conducive situation to every sector, the govt intend to increase production. For that only the govt gives subsidies and various concession as it gives more employment and growth in GDP. Whatever be Agri sector mainly depends on monsoon only and in the event of failure of monsoon the problem arises.
Why did BJP (Modi) Promise while taking vote for themselves. Loan waiver cannot be decision of a political party. The money in the banks is not of modi or Fadnavis that these people announce in the greed of them being voted. We really feel ashamed of the kind of politics fraudulent BJP is playing and showing false dreams to the poor.
Re: Not only Farmers others should also protest against BJP
by Prakash Bedekar on Jun 07, 2017 11:36 AM
Very well said, we should now realise that BJP has always used double standards as their standard policy. By the end of 5 year term of Modi govt, it will be clear that this is the worst ever govt we had after independence.
For the last 2 years this BJP govt in Maharashtra is actively using devide and rule policy with total disregard to farmers problems. For how long these farmers will keep quiet on the basis of only assurences without any conctrete action? It seems BJP has not learnt from past mistakes or have not studied why they were defeated after only one term in office.
It is a political move... After loan waiver by Congress , every year in every state poor or rich farmer wants loan waiver....when prices are down farmers will start crying when up politicians n public will start crying....Country is divided Hindu,Dalit, Muslims n Kisans.... Govt should be very strict... no freebies, no loan waiver... in this country there are many poors who do not have land... worse than farmers...

When govt is ready to write off loans worth more than 11000 lakh crores of various industrial houses, what is wrong if farmers ask for waiver of around Rs 100000 crores of their loans?

Write off n waiver is different. Pl go to a banker n understand...Waiver is harmful to economy, Banks, Society sets a bad precedents
Re: Re: Re: Maharashtra farmers
by Gladyschellam on Jun 07, 2017 09:51 AM
Mr. Ashok: Write off means inclusive of interest not paid and outstanding balances in Principal is closed from the income earned by the Bank. The banker loses income as well as the amount advanced.
WAIVER means some concessional rate of interest is being given but the principal amount has to be paid. The banker loses income only.

Sir, if the nation was to follow your communist approach, indian economy would be bankrupt in two years if you want the govt to waive of loans then: 1)be ready to pay higher prices for all agricultural products 2)be ready and willing to pay extra cess /duty (state specific) for farmers. Thanks
Farmers of Maharashtra are under the influence of Pawar. Maharashtra's contribution to the all India food market is negligible. Modi Govt will loose the majority vote bank if the loans are waived off entirely.

It seems for any happening in Maharashtra, only one who is responsible is Sharad Pawar. This shows his clout in Maharashtra politics and failure of other leaders.

No... Congress has set bad precedent... unnecessarily blaming Mallya...he was ready to settle for 7000 crores... P Chidambaram waived 66000 crores...whether farmer is rich or poor.... now most of all Farmers are not repaying n demanding loan waiver even they are capable of repayment..
Re: Re: Allover india farmers thinks bjp is anti farmers
by Prakash Bedekar on Jun 06, 2017 12:37 PM
Sir, Modi govt has written off loans of more than 11000 lakh crores in last 3 years. These loans were given to various industrial houses which were totally unrecorable.
Re: Re: Re: Allover india farmers thinks bjp is anti farmers

My dear Written Off is different n Loan waiver is different.. Writting off is done for income tax n Balance sheet purpose Recovery action is going on In the court, action under SRFAESI Act, etc... It is shown in CIBIL reports....Loan waiver is harmful to Banks,, Economy, Society,n moral of the people...
