POINTS RELATED TO #MSP

1) MSP does not have any legal backing till now and farmers can't demand it as a right. Its just government policy and an administrative decision to purchase food grains at MSP. And govt can't even force private players to provide MSP. 👇

And even the new Farm Bills does not mention "MSP" or " government procurement".

CACP, which recommends MSP, is again not a statutory body and its just an office attached to Ministry of Agriculture. CACP just recommends MSP but the decision on fixing and even not fixing 👇
and its implementation lies with Govt.

See there are two things, ONE is declaration of MSP and the SECOND is procurement of food grains at MSP by Govt. Agencies. The declaration of MSP has no meaning (its worthless) if Govt. agencies are not procuring at MSP. 👇
Govt. declares MSP for 25 crops but procurement mainly happens only of Wheat and Rice from Punjab and Haryana. Its practically impossible to purchase the entire 25 crops from all over India at MSP. And there is whole lot of CORRUPTION in FCI MSP operations and govt. 👇
is loosing lakhs of crores of rupees every year in subsidy, not resulting in any benefit to poor but helping only few big farmers. THAT IS WHY GOVT. don't want MSP to make a LEGAL RIGHT.

2) Why farmers are scared about the agri reforms???👇
Answer: Farmers see these reforms as a precursor to dismantling MSP mechanism. And that may be TRUE. Let me tell u why.
Procurement at MSP of only wheat and rice from Punjab and Haryana has totally distorted agriculture production, resulting in Soil degradation👇
, water contamination (with urea), stagnated yield etc. But govt cannot stop MSP procurement immediately as farmers will suffer a lot, this is because, as wholesale trade was not allowed outside APMCs, so private mandi infrastructure have not developed in India. 👇
If govt will not procure at MSP, the trades in APMC mandis will exploit farmers (as they are exploiting farmers all over India) as there are no other mandis for farmers to sell. So, by bringing in reforms govt wants to establish several private mandis and in future 👇
once all this private marketing infrastructure gets developed, then in future if govt stops procurement at MSP..............then farmers will have the choice to sell outside APMC mandis and they may even fetch better or equal price as MSP........ 👇
3) National Food Security Act 2013 say about providing wheat/rice/coarse grains to people through PDS but does not talk about procurement at MSP.

4) The Essential Commodities Act 1955 mentions sugarcane and sugar as essential commodities and through that Act, 👇
govt has forced private players/sugar mills to procure sugarcane from farmers at FRP/SAP.

5) Its like Central govt and State govt combined is giving more than Rs. 3 lakh crore every year as subsidy to farmers like MSP, urea, electricity, water, purchase of equipments etc. etc👇
which is mainly consumed by few big farmers because 86% of the small and marginal farmers practically dont benefit. These big farmers have acres of land. Even a farmer having 5 acre of land converts into an asset size of more than one crore value. 👇
To them Govt has to give a lot of subsidies every year and what about the landless labourers, daily wagers ?????? they dont have any asset and they dont get any subsidy.

Once upon a time there was a Raja named Uttānapāda born of Svayambhuva Manu,1st man on earth.He had 2 beautiful wives - Suniti & Suruchi & two sons were born of them Dhruva & Uttama respectively.
#talesofkrishna https://t.co/E85MTPkF9W


Now Suniti was the daughter of a tribal chief while Suruchi was the daughter of a rich king. Hence Suruchi was always favored the most by Raja while Suniti was ignored. But while Suniti was gentle & kind hearted by nature Suruchi was venomous inside.
#KrishnaLeela


The story is of a time when ideally the eldest son of the king becomes the heir to the throne. Hence the sinhasan of the Raja belonged to Dhruva.This is why Suruchi who was the 2nd wife nourished poison in her heart for Dhruva as she knew her son will never get the throne.


One day when Dhruva was just 5 years old he went on to sit on his father's lap. Suruchi, the jealous queen, got enraged and shoved him away from Raja as she never wanted Raja to shower Dhruva with his fatherly affection.


Dhruva protested questioning his step mother "why can't i sit on my own father's lap?" A furious Suruchi berated him saying "only God can allow him that privilege. Go ask him"
