New Delhi: The Akhil Bharatiya Kisan Sangharsh Coordination Committee wrote a letter to Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Agriculture Minister Narendra Singh Tomar on Saturday, saying that the protests of the farmers currently running are not affiliated with any political party. In separate letters written in Hindi to Modi and Tomar, the committee said that it is a misconception of the government that the farmers' agitation against the three agricultural laws is being sponsored by the opposition parties. These letters were written on behalf of the farmers organization when the Prime Minister accused the opposition parties of misleading the farmers about the three agricultural laws. The committee is one of about 40 farmer organizations that have been protesting on the borders of Delhi for the last 23 days. It said in its letter to the Prime Minister, 'The truth is that the farmers' movement has forced political parties to change their views and your (Prime Minister's) allegation that political parties are nurturing it (protests) is wrong. is.' The committee said in the letter, 'No demand of any protesting union and group is related to any political party.' The farmers 'organization has written to Prime Minister Modi,' It is with great regret that you have to say that you have started attacking the demands and agitations of the farmers for two days, while claiming to solve the demands of the farmers. He shows that you have no sympathy with the farmers and you may have changed your intention to solve their problems. Of course, everything you said is factless. ' He said, 'You claim that before the enactment of these laws, there has been a detailed discussion at various levels and all political parties have adopted the opinion in favor of these changes. On this point you should be clear that agriculture has been the subject of states and various aspects of changes in the mandis have been the subject of discussion in the states, some changes have also taken place in some states. At the central level, you will impose such laws and impose them on the entire country, you suddenly gave this blow to the country on June 5. You never had any discussion with farmers' organizations on these points and declared them passed without even hearing the voices of protest in Parliament. It is because of your shock that the farmer movement is growing in such a big way. There will be no solution to this by muddying the facts. The farmers' organization responded to Narendra Modi's speech and wrote, "You have also claimed that the manifesto of the opposition parties contains recommendations to connect farmers to the market as an alternative." We do not know what it means, but if it means that large corporate and foreign companies are allowed to enter agriculture, to have complete dominance in the mandi system and to make the farmers more contractual by tying them to the farmers then any of this Is not concerned It is good that you discuss this with the opposition parties and do not try to mislead the farmers' movement with this argument. Along with this, the farmers organization has also replied to the letter of Agriculture Minister Narendra Singh Tomar through this letter, which he had written to farmers and told them to mislead the movement. The organization said, 'At the end of the letter, you cited the' conspiracy created by some political parties and organizations' under the guise of farmers, you have 'Congress Party', 'Aam Aadmi Party', 'Hooda Committee', 'Akali Dal', 'Politics of vote-gathering', 'disgrace of revered Bapu', 'release of accused of riots', 'battle of 62', 'boycott of India's products', etc., have long been cited by the farmers movement. No, nor has any farmer organization raised any demand from the government in this regard or at any point related to it. Therefore, we would like to say with humility to you that it would have been nice if such letters were not mentioned in your unrelated issues. It is clear that you are mentioning all these things to divert attention from the discussion on the real issue of the struggle. He said that all the farmer organizations have continuously urged you that the withdrawal of these three agricultural laws and electricity bill, 2020 is necessary because they are agricultural mandis, farming process, supply of cost goods, storage of crops, cold store , Will establish big corporate and foreign companies as legal rights in transportation, processing, sale of food. The farmers' organization further said that the amendment of the Essential Commodities Act will promote open hoarding and black marketing, allow food prices to be increased at least one and a half times every year and will make the rationing system more attractive. It is also written in your law that the government will promote these companies, because this ongoing farming will be ruined and farmers will be evicted from the fields, their livelihood will be lost to them and all the people involved, so urged you to Withdraw laws.
