IT IS KNOWN FACT THAT THE EXISTING PACKAGES SPECIALLY ANNOUNCED FOR WEST VIDARBHA IN ORDER TO CONTROL THESE ON GOING FARMERS SUICIDES ARE NOT TARGETED TO THE REASONS OF DISTRESS IN THE RURAL AREA OF COTTON GROWING REGION MASS SUICIDES OF FARMERS ARE LIKELY TO BE REPORTED IN NEAR FUTURE AS THERE IS NO ADMINISTRATION TO SEE THESES HELPLESS FARMERS AND THERE COMPLETE CURIOS AND HOSTILE CORRUPTION INCREASING DISTRESS AMONG FARMERS, EVERYBODY KNOWS PLIGHTS OF THE FARMERS BUT NOBODY IS KEEN TO SOLVE THE PROBLEMS’ KISHOR TIWARI ADDED.

IF ANY BODY ASK WHAT IS WRONG WITH ONE TIME VERY RICH COTTON ECONOMY OF WEST VIDARBHA HAS BEEN SO COLLAPSED THAT OUT OF 3 MILLION FARMERS MORE THAN 75% FARMERS ARE UNDER EXTREME DISTRESS AND COMMITTING SUICIDES, ACTIVIST SAYS IT’S RESULT OF WRONG POLICIES OF GOVT. AND ADMINISTRATION CLAIMS THAT FARMERS ARE KILLING THEMSELVES BECAUSE OF THEIR WRONG HABITS BUT WHEN POLITICAL LEADERS BEING ASKED REGARDING THE FARM SUICIDES THEN THEY BLAME POLITICAL PARTY IN POWER FOR THESE KILLINGS. THE FACT IS THAT FARMER’S SUICIDE IS ACCUMULATED RESULT OF MASS DISTRESS DUE COMPLETE FAILURE SOCIAL AND CIVIL ADMINISTRATION IN THIS AREA. IRRESPONSIBLE AND CORRUPT LEADERS AND BUREAUCRATS WITH WASTED INTEREST AT ALL LEVEL HAVE CREATED THIS HOSTILE CONDITION.

RESTORATION OF SOCIAL AND CIVIL ADMINISTRATION IS UP MOST PRIORITY THEN PROVIDING SUPPORT SYSTEMS LIKE HEALTH CARE, EDUCATION, FOOD SECURITY AND LOCAL EMPLOYMENT IN ORDER TO SLOW DOWN THE GOING SUICIDE IS MUST BUT NOBODY IS SERIOUS ON THESE ISSUES.

SUSTAINABLE FARMING IS NEED OF HOUR BUT ANY RELIEF PACKAGE TARGETING THESE ISSUES WILL NOT IMMEDIATELY STOP ON GOING EPIDEMIC OF FARMERS SUICIDES AS THEY FOOD STARVED, THEY MENTALLY AND PHYSICALLY ILL HENCE HEALTH CARE AND FOOD SECURITY TO THESE FARMING COMMUNITY IS MUST, WE HAVE BEEN DEMANDING THESE BASIC DEMANDS BUT INSTEAD OF LOOKING TO THESE DEMANDS WE ARE BEING SENT TO JAIL ALL THE TIME. NOW IT’S YOUR RESPONSBILITY TO SAVE THESE 3 MILLION FARMERS OF WEST VIDARBHA ,VJAS URGED TO SOCIETY.
