Farmers’ organizations have been working for the last three days to form an aggressive strategy in view of the attitude of the government. A little bit of tussle has also started in the farmers organizations. Some organizations want to take a slightly loose stance with the government, while the farmers associations of Punjab, Western Uttar Pradesh, Haryana are adamant about their objective in the interest of farmers. On the other hand, the government is working on a strategy to take advantage of the situation of differences between farmers’ organizations. According to information received from Ministry sources, the Central Government is not going to come to the negotiating table by doing any special homework for the January 20 talks.
It is said that the government will discuss each point of the three agricultural laws with the farmers’ organizations on Wednesday, January 20 and will seek options from the farmers. Farmers’ organizations have made up their mind to repeal the three agricultural laws from the government and demand a purchase guarantee on the MSP. Overall, the chances of reaching any conclusion of the talks are slim. Chaudhary Harpal Singh, president of the Bharatiya Kisan Union (real) apolitical, says that the result of the first day’s talks with the government is the same today. There is no change in the original situation. Harpal Singh says that the government is only avoiding chops on the pretext of talks.According to Punjab farmer leader Harmeet Singh Kadian, the intention of the government is not clear. Union Agriculture Minister Narendra Singh Tomar and Piyush Goyal come only to talk to the farmers. Kadian says that every time farmers join the talks with hope and return empty handed.
Agriculture Minister Narendra Singh Tomar and Commerce and Railways Minister Piyush Goyal have made it clear that the Central Government is not going to repeal the three agricultural laws. The farmers should give up their insistence. Tomar says that farmers should point out flaws in all three laws and the government is ready to discuss them and make appropriate amendments. Even on other questions like purchase guarantee on MSP, the central government is seeking to suggest its option from the farmers.
There is still no change in this attitude of the government. Sources in the farmers’ organization and the government say that the central government is ready to make more than a dozen amendments to the three laws. However, the farmers’ organizations say that the amendments on which the government is preparing, will not solve any specific purpose of farmer interest. So when there are flaws in the law, then the government should cancel it. The legislation brought renewed discussion in the agricultural interest.

]]>The air clears as soon as it leaves Delhi’s urban periphery. Here, there is no dusty dust on trees which can be seen in Delhi. The leaves are blossoming and green. The DTC’s red bus landed us about 1 kilometer before the Singhu border. Here the Delhi Police’s batonmen showed us the way where the farmers’ groups from Punjab have been camping for the last two weeks and are demanding the withdrawal of the new ‘Kalle Kanun’. We set out on that side on foot
It is evening. At the place of picketing, a little light twilight is applied. As soon as we reached here from Delhi, the anchor was seen on the left side. Hot hot pooris are being fried. Two or three gas furnaces are burnt. Big tea bunnies are offered. An entire Sikh family, including women, is calling out to those passing by. Vahe Guru … ‘Want Chao’ … Eat Puris … Drink tea is fine, but why the name of ‘Vahe Guru’? I felt that this is a way to show respect for the guest and to express the Guru’s ideals.

]]>Farmers are raising their voices in unison against the Agrarian Reform Act brought by the Modi government. The farmers are adamant on the demand to withdraw the three agricultural laws and in protest, the farmers’ organizations have announced a Bharat Bandh. Opposition parties have supported the demand of farmers. In such a situation, very few people would know that former Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee had to go to jail for voicing the issue of farmers. At that time, he was kept in Jail Naini, one of the safest jails in the country, where Atal Bihari Vajpayee was closed for five days. Let me tell you that a political board was being laid for the Uttar Pradesh Assembly elections to be held in 1974. There was a Congress government in UP and the command of power was in the hands of Hemwati Nandan Bahuguna. Atal Bihari Vajpayee used to be the leader of the Jana Sangh at that time and was counted among the leaders who raised their voice against the Congress on issues related to the people across the country. Strike against government procurement of wheat In 1973, the farmers had a good wheat crop. The Congress government of UP was forcing farmers to sell wheat at government prices. The government’s order was that it is mandatory for all farmers to sell wheat at government prices. The prices were getting good in the market due to good yield of wheat, but farmers were upset due to the government order. The Jana Sangh started a wheat levy movement against the government. In Uttar Pradesh, the responsibility of leading the wheat levy farmer movement was in the hands of Atal Bihari Bajpai. In such a situation, Atal Bihari Vajpayee took a road with thousands of people and made a cry against the Congress government. Senior journalist K.K. Vikram Rao says that Vajpayee’s landing on the streets of Lucknow and anti-government slogans started, there was a panic in the power of the country. Vajpayee staged a sit-in in Lucknow Atal Bihari Bajpai, while leading the wheat levy movement, said that the government cannot force poor peasant laborers to sell their grain. K. Vikram Rao says that the government was procuring wheat for the food grains across the country, which was being purchased at government prices and was much lower than the market price. The government said that if even a quintal of wheat has been produced in the farmers’ fields, the farmer should sell half of it. The farmers were not persuaded by this government order and were opposing the government order. The Jana Sangh came out on the road, adding to the tune of the farmers on this issue.

Farmers are busy in large numbers on the Indus border of Delhi and today is the 13th day of their performance here. The farmers have come here with full arrangements. Some farmers are also with the family. The 12-year-old Bir is also on the Indus border. His eyes have a different glow. Bir farmer is participating in the movement with his father, so his education is also going on here. Along with studies, he also serves the farmers of his batch. Bir is a seventh-grader at St. Jude’s Convent School in Jalandhar. Studies are going on online. But here there is neither a laptop, nor a table-chair, so Bir completes all the school work on mobile. The story of Bir is really a story of a brave boy. On 25 November, when a batch of farmers came out of his village Talwan near Jalandhar, Bir told his father that he too would go to Delhi with him and he reached Delhi. Bir told, “I want to grow up and become a farmer. Modi ji has passed such laws which are against the farmer, they make us weak, so I came with Papa ji, I will bring new technology to my village, will cultivate in a new way. ”
