Freebies is free poision.
Congess, CPM & TMC (mamta) giving to the public for votebank politics.
Making this our people undevelope, uneducated beggars.
Sometimes harvesting more (customers gain, farmers loss), Sometimes harvesting less (customers loss, farmers gain) . It’s a double edges sword.
What Congess can not solve 70 years. Comunist can not solve 34 years.
Do not instigate them for mere political benefit. Need scientific outlook to solve it.

farmers life in India.

We see many years, up to this time we are facing the Leaders and Political parties as, "by the gundas and for the gundas". Where ever the Labour Parties rule, there we can see the real democracy that is “by the people and for the people.” Thank God the things will happen sooner the future. Ordinary people like us fed up of these Bloody Jute promising leaders. We most welcome Labourers’ party...

Future of India is doomed unless radical step is taken

There lies a very dark future for India. In bigger and medium scale cities, India has moved away from agricultural based economy to industrial based economy in the last few decades making a way from protectionism, market regulation and state capitalism to private capitalism (Crony capitalism instead). These crony capitalist extend or donate trillions of money to politicians in return for a favor. In free market capitalism prices are determine by the market forces, consumers and capitalist. In Western developed countries along with capitalism, there is social welfare like free school, free healthcare, welfare money for weaker section to survive or sustain. In India the corrupt politicians and cronies have hijacked the free market system and recover their bribe money from public via artificial inflation and high tax rate which is increasing cost of living making people struggle and increase divide between rural and urban. For farmers, they get 2-5 rupees (0.10 cents per kg of onion because all the money is eaten by corrupt middlemen and procurement agencies. They are hand in glove with politicians. Indian politicians are so bad and corrupt that wherever thee is opportunity for corruption and making money , they become partner in crime with corrupt at all levels. Nitin Gadkari promised he will look after farmers demand but realized 30 millions traders are involved in this chain where they will loose their vote bank even though country would go in drain.

Now about farmers. They are at mercy of laws, beaurocracy, erratic power supply, increasing prices of pesticides, unseasonable rain. Then there are laws to harass them. Essential Commodities Act which prohibits farmers storing their own produced crops and grains. Land Ceiling Act has put restriction on them from acquiring farms that are commercially viable. They are at mercy of informal credit. APMC act makes them dependent on fixed market price which these corrupt traders and stock holders buy them are fixed price and then they indulge in black marketing sometimes.

The multiple chain in producing, storing, procurement, transport of crops and food items makes it 10 times costlier when it reaches the end consumer. Indian villages never had it so bad.

Then there is aspect of black marketing, creating fake paradox that crops were destroyed in storage due to bad weather, theft and birds eating the crop. They bribe the officials in selling those at higher prices to end consumer.

Despite knowing everything, the corruption remains same. I want the world market to know. In rich states like Maharashtra, Gujrat and South the agents loot more because they know people purchasing power is more. In poor states like UP, Orissa and Bihar, the government like Patnaik government offers rice at 1 RS KG under different schemes or at lower price.

I want the world to take a note of it, how corrupt Indian politicians, beaurocrats, mafia and agents are that they work in tandem

You are right. World does not even care what happens in India. Whether people dies in India, or India becomes leader in corruption. These western countries are interested in selling their arms, ammunition and products in India. I am sorry. I feel hurt when my countrymen suffers. My dear brother Janga I hate this western democracy. Democracy should not be impudent to growth and development. Even if Modi is made leader for life in India like China did with Xi ping and if he rules with iron hand and end the mess, I am sure even minorities will side with him. The fake democracy which is impractical in Asian culture is eating up India. Learn lessons from China. We are Asian country. We need economic development and accountability not democracy at this stage
