&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;Private capital in agriculture is a death warrant for farmers, but the PM is trapped. He can either have a &amp;lsquo;firm leader&amp;rsquo; image or avert this tragedy.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;What was intended to be a two-day protest on 26-27 November 2020 in Delhi has turned into a month-long protest on its borders. As it is turning into a nationwide protest with mass mobilisation, not only of farmers but of different classes of people, simmering discontent seems to have shed its ambivalence&amp;mdash;as if it were just waiting for the opportune time.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;At the outset, it must be made clear that the government of India is not entitled to enact laws in the field of agriculture, but it has been claiming that the three acts are connected with trading, which is a Union government subject. Right from the 1960s, the government of India has been fixing the Minimum Support Price (MSP) every year and procurement used to occur through Agriculture Produce Marketing Committees (APMCs). Yet, had the government been sincere when it enacted the three new laws, it would have first made MSP compulsory and APMCs essential for procurement of grains and other produce. Such an act would have quelled all fears. The terrible experience of farmers in Bihar due to their unprotected agricultural markets would have provided the necessary framework for guaranteeing MSP and making APMCs compulsory everywhere. But it was not to be.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Opening agricultural markets to private capital means a death warrant for farmers, even if the present farm laws had assured that the farmers&amp;rsquo; land would not be taken from them. And, so far as the ruling party&amp;rsquo;s claim that APMCs are riddled with corruption is concerned, it can just be said that corruption is a national issue, to prevent which requires a different strategy in all walks of public life.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;What was intended to be a two-day protest on 26-27 November 2020 in Delhi has turned into a month-long protest on its borders. As it is turning into a nationwide protest with mass mobilisation, not only of farmers but of different classes of people, simmering discontent seems to have shed its ambivalence&amp;mdash;as if it were just waiting for the opportune time.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;At the outset, it must be made clear that the government of India is not entitled to enact laws in the field of agriculture, but it has been claiming that the three acts are connected with trading, which is a Union government subject. Right from the 1960s, the government of India has been fixing the Minimum Support Price (MSP) every year and procurement used to occur through Agriculture Produce Marketing Committees (APMCs). Yet, had the government been sincere when it enacted the three new laws, it would have first made MSP compulsory and APMCs essential for procurement of grains and other produce. Such an act would have quelled all fears. The terrible experience of farmers in Bihar due to their unprotected agricultural markets would have provided the necessary framework for guaranteeing MSP and making APMCs compulsory everywhere. But it was not to be.&lt;/p&gt;

Farmers’ Agitation: A Catch-22 Situation for Prime Minister Modi -Paramjit Singh Judge

-Newsclick.in Private capital in agriculture is a death warrant for farmers, but the PM is trapped. He can either have a ‘firm leader’ image or avert this tragedy. What was intended to be a two-day protest on 26-27 November 2020 in Delhi has turned into a month-long protest on its borders. As it is turning into a nationwide protest with mass mobilisation, not only of farmers but of different classes of people, simmering discontent seems to have shed its ambivalence—as if it were just waiting for the opportune time. At the outset, it must be made clear that the government of India is not entitled to enact laws in the field of agriculture, but it has been claiming that the three acts are connected with trading, which is a Union government subject. Right from the 1960s, the government of India has been fixing the Minimum Support Price (MSP) every year and procurement used to occur through Agriculture Produce Marketing Committees (APMCs). Yet, had the government been sincere when it enacted the three new laws, it would have first made MSP compulsory and APMCs essential for procurement of grains and other produce. Such an act would have quelled all fears. The terrible experience of farmers in Bihar due to their unprotected agricultural markets would have provided the necessary framework for guaranteeing MSP and making APMCs compulsory everywhere. But it was not to be. Opening agricultural markets to private capital means a death warrant for farmers, even if the present farm laws had assured that the farmers’ land would not be taken from them. And, so far as the ruling party’s claim that APMCs are riddled with corruption is concerned, it can just be said that corruption is a national issue, to prevent which requires a different strategy in all walks of public life.
