FIVE FARMERS IN VIDARBHA COMMIT SUICIDE - IS THE GOVERNMENT REALLY REACHING OUT TO THE POOR FARMERS? (21st Oct 2009, 0210 Hrs)

FIVE FARMERS IN VIDARBHA COMMIT SUICIDE - IS THE GOVERNMENT REALLY REACHING OUT TO THE POOR FARMERS? (21st Oct 2009, 0210 Hrs)

Corruption is the BIGGEST MENACE that is so prevalent in every country. However, India surely beats them all because Indian leaders don’t hesitate even one bit to lie to pocket 84 per cent of public money without any shame and conscience. While the Prime Minister Manmohan Singh have shouted aloud that – “No Indian will die because of shortage of food” – Vidarbha farmers have no option but to commit suicide to escape life in poverty and suffering.

Prime Minister of India is to be blamed for these untimely deaths of poor farmers and so also the Agriculture Minister Sharad Pawar and Home Minister. Since there has been no news of any drought or flood relief being given to poor farmers of the affected areas, they have no choice but to fight poverty and miseries either by selling their wives (Bundelkhand) to loan sharks or else commit suicide (Vidarbha). Government agency NCW (National Commission for Women), who had ordered 48-Hour Probe on 7th September 2009 under pressure from the media, has kept mum for more than a month now. Why the PM has not stepped in to ask for the Probe Report? If the PM can intervene in Ambanis Brothers Feud over Gas, why can’t he ask his Home Minister to know as to what is happening in rural villages? PM, HOME MINISTER and the AGRICULTURE MINISTER will only worry about the rich industrialists but also not bother at all about the poor farmers’ plight and woes.

Why the PM is keeping mum over the Bundelkhand Farmers selling wives issue?

Why has the NCW Chairperson Girija Vyas kept mum after showing her concern on CNN IBN about the Bundelkhand issue?

Why has CNN IBN not followed the story to ask the 48-Hour Probe Report from the NCW?

Why is everybody keeping mum about the issue? Will the PM, Home Minister of NCW Chairperson give any answers to the nation about such a serious issue?

Well, all they are worried about is to wage war on Naxalites with Army and Indian Air Force.

Actually, the PM should send SM Krishna and Shashi Tharoor to USA for asking their help to wage a full-fledged war on Naxalites.

Mr. Chidambaram and Mr. Manmohan Singh, this is how Naxalites are born because poor innocent villagers are not given any importance and proper relief to safeguard them from natural calamities. After all, these poor farmers don’t even bother to open their arms to ask any help from the government when everything is all right with the monsoon or climate. However, when they face adversities, it is the corrupt ministers, who immediately announce Drought or Flood Relief Package for the affected farmers and villagers but the relief never reaches them. It is situation like this, when heart boils and poor farmers lift guns instead of farming tools. Who will you blame now Mr. Chidambaram, the numbers suffering under our own very government has been increasing day by day to give shape to the Naxal Problem the state of India is facing today? Tell us Mr. Chidambaram? Do you have any answers for such a situation? Imagine since the last 62 years, the poor farmers and villagers have been exploited, thrashed by law & order and judicial system, deprived of their little joys and happiness and harassed by the system… tell me Mr. Chidambaram why the poor will not lift a gun to fight the corrupt system?

Does the government of India really take any actions against corrupt politicians to check corruption in the system? Does the government really care about the poor population of Indian? Will the government take necessary effective steps to stop suicide of poor farmers? Well, the vicious circle of corruption has engulfed many big leaders in its stride worldwide and today CORRUPTION IS THE BIGGER PROBLEM THAN NAXALITES. Many will agree with me that if the system is clean, there will be no naxalites born in our India. As long as the system and leaders are corrupt, more and more people will join the movement because as it is they are dying daily.

Please wake up Manmohan Singh before it is too late. Make your government solve the problems of the poor first… the rich can buy all the luxuries of life but a poor only wants small joys of life, which your government has snatched away from them. Save the lives of poor farmers, because what you eat is being produced by these poor farmers’ sweat and blood with their sincerity towards their beloved nation!
