The next nearest supply point is at Ramnagar Kasba, a good 10 km away, entailing an excruciating wait at the railway crossing on the route.<br /> <br /> Holi Gautam, a Dalit farmer, one of the few of his community owning land, has been unable to procure seeds and fertilizers for the upcoming wheat season. His eight bighas lies waste. Not only that, the paddy crop he reaped recently has no takers in the market, short on cash.<br /> <br /> &ldquo;Merchants say they have no cash. They offer drastically low prices, which is not viable,&rdquo; says Gautam, a Jatav, U.P.&rsquo;s largest Dalit caste. He feels the demonetisation of Rs. 500 and Rs. 1,000 notes has caused undue harassment to the poor. The 60-year-old had gone to the nearest bank in Ramnagar for the last three days but forced to return empty-handed, unable to wait for long in the serpentine queues.<br /> <br /> Bank branches in rural U.P. are few and far between, compounding the situation. Gautam, who is yet to receive the compensation due to him for damage to the wheat crop by hailstorm last season, is not sure if he will be able the sow the crop in time this time.
