 *Farmer Bill: Why Congress is hypocrite* Here's what Congress' stance has been on farmer's bill in the past: 1-The Farmers' Produce Trade and Commerce (Promotion and Facilitation) Bill, 2020: The bill seeks to provide for the creation of an ecosystem where the farmers and traders enjoy the freedom of choice relating to sale and purchase of farmers' produce. Congress in the past: Congress in its manifesto 2019 mentioned that “Congress will repeal the Agricultural Produce Market Committee’s Act and make trade in agriculture produce - including export and inter-state trade-free from all restrictions. The UPA government prepared the draft Bill titled as “Agricultural Produce Inter State Trade and Commerce (Development and Regulation) Bill 2012”. However, it was not pursued further.

Govt. is trying to shift the Agricultural sector from a ‘Production Based Supply Chain’ to a ‘Demand-Driven Supply Chain’. Rs. 1,00,000 crore Fund for Farmers declared by the FM towards Post Harvest Infrastructure and Rs. 10,000 crore Fund for Micro Food Enterprises will complement the downstream investments by the Corporates thus completing the reform of the Supply Chain. 1) The Farmers (Empowerment and Protection) Agreement of Price Assurance and Farm Services Bill, 2020 seeks to provide for a national framework on farming agreements that protects and empowers farmers to engage with agri-business firms, processors, wholesalers, exporters or large retailers for farm services and sale of future farming produce at a mutually agreed remunerative price framework in a fair and transparent manner and for matters connected therewith or incidental thereto.

Farmers in Punjab and Haryana have been protesting against three ordinances promulgated by the Centre on June 5. After the Monsoon Session of Parliament began this week, the government has introduced three Bills to replace these ordinances. Lok Sabha passed these bills this week.  SAD leader Sukhbir Badal announced in Lok Sabha that Harsimrat Badal, the Union minister for Food Processing Industries from his party, will resign in protest over these bills. What are these ordinances, and why are farmers protesting? They are called The Farmers Produce Trade and Commerce (Promotion and Facilitation) Ordinance, 2020; The Farmers (Empowerment and Protection) Agreement on Price Assurance and Farm Services Ordinance, 2020; and The Essential Commodities (Amendment) Ordinance, 2020. While farmers are protesting against all three ordinances, their objections are mostly against the provisions of the first. And while there is no uniform demand among the protesters or a unified leadership, it emerges

 मित्रांनो डोक्यात द्वेष भावना न ठेवता अतिशय प्लेन माईंड ने एक वेळेस अवश्य वाचा. काही कळत आहे का, लक्षात येत आहे का..? बघा. मोदीजींच्या लोकप्रियतेची सहा रहस्ये... भारतात आजवर अनेक लोकप्रिय नेते होऊन गेले. पण या सगळ्यांच्या लोकप्रियतेचे विक्रम नरेंद्र मोदींनी मोडीत काढले आहेत असं म्हणता येईल. आणि काही मूठभर द्वेष्टे सोडले तर हे कोणी नाकारणारही नाही.  स्वतंत्र भारतात इंदिरा गांधी आणि अटलबिहारी वाजपेयी यांना प्रचंड लोकप्रियता लाभली. 'आजवरचे सर्वोत्तम पंतप्रधान कोण' या वेळोवेळी होत असलेल्या सर्वेक्षणात या दोघांनाच आलटून पालटून पसंती मिळत आली. पण त्यांची अप्रूव्हल रेटिंग्ज कधी 40-45 टक्क्यांच्या पुढे गेली नाहीत.  इंडिया टुडेने नुकत्याच घेतलेल्या ' मूड ऑफ द नेशन पोल ' मध्ये मोदींना असलेला लोकांचा पाठिंबा 70 - 90 टक्क्यांपर्यंत जाऊन पोचला आहे ! हे ऐकून राजदीप सरदेसाईला बसलेला धक्का आणि झालेली चिडचिड बघण्यासारखी होती. 2014 आणि 2019 मध्ये वाढत्या बहुमताने निवडून आलेल्या मोदींची लोकप्रियता कोविड आणि चिनी आक्रमणाच्या काळातही सतत वाढतच आहे आणि आता विक्रमी पातळीवर पोचली आहे.  इतकंच
