Hi Friends,

Even as I launch this today ( my 80th Birthday ), I realize that there is yet so much to say and do. There is just no time to look back, no time to wonder,"Will anyone read these pages?"

WHY    PENALIZE     POOR     FARMERS   ?

Dear  Ministers / MPs / MLAs :

Why take away " ownership " of their land ?

We know that this ownership is not profitable for the farmers

By continuing to till those lands for a pittance , farmers are obliging the rest of the society

They barely manage to eke out a subsistence-level living , even when rains are good

Rest of the times , they remain perpetually  indebted to " Shahukars "

On an average , 17,000 farmers commit suicide each year , when they fail to repay their debt ( - may be , no more than Rs 20,000/- ! )

Have you ever heard a Businessman or an Industrialist commit suicide , after willfully defaulting to repay bank loans of Rs 20 Crores / 200 Crores ?

No , they go on Swiss Holiday ! ( You guessed right why Swiss ! )

How many " Lakhs*Crores " have banks written off as NPA over the years ?

Is any banker losing his / her sleep ?

No !  Just write-off or ask Government for " Re-Capitalization " !

Why can't we write-off our " Societal Debt " to farmers by paying each farmer-family , a sum of Rs 20,000 / - per month ?

That is less than what we ( thru the Central and the State Governments ) have been paying by way of wages to millions of workers employed by PSUs , for the past 60 years  !

Workers who have NO WORK ( - since there is NO DEMAND for what those PSUs produce ? ) , but still troop in every morning to punch attendance - then play cards on the shop-floor for the rest of the day !

Has any Minister / MP / MLA, bothered to visit these PSUs , incognito ?

How many " Lakhs*Crores " of rupees have the honest tax-payers paid over these years , to protect their " Idle / Non Productive " jobs ?

And , did we not pay another " Lakhs*Crores " to hundreds of erstwhile Rajahs / Maharajahs ( - and their children ) for 50 years , by way of " Saliyana " ( Pension / Annuity ) , for divesting of their Kingdoms ?

Even as they were " legally " permitted to retain all of their ill-gotten wealth ,accumulated over the years by plundering the " Praja " ?

So , why can't we take care of our farmers' families for the next 25 years ?

Why this double standard ?

When a clever professional can be paid " Sweat Equity " in an enterprise for contributing his brain power , why can't we pay similar Equity to farmers , for allowing us to use their lands ?

Central Government is planning to fund ( by way of EQUITY ) ,thousands of " Start-Ups " , and has set aside Rs 10,000 Crores for this purpose

Does Central Government believe , any of these will pay dividend for the next 10 years ?

Of Course , not !

Please , have mercy on the farmers , who continue to display the highest " Work Ethics " of any working group , in this country !

*   Do not take away their " Ownership " of their land

*   Request them to allow Governments ( Central + States ) to become
     " Co - Owners " of their lands

*  For allowing such " Co-Ownership " , give them EQUITY in the concerned
    Project ( separate SPV for each project )

*  Give them some immediate " Joining Bonus " in cash ( do not call it " Compensation " )

*  Give them monthly " Rental " for land-lease ( do not call it " Subsidy " )


Over the past 4 days , I have already sent to you my detailed proposal ( thru individual emails  )

If you did not receive a copy , do not hesitate to write / phone

This is all about , " Sabka Saath , Sabka Vikas "

with regards,
