UP: It’s not Back to Square One After Farm Law Scrapping -Subodh Varma

There are too many reasons why people, especially farmers, are angry with the Yogi-Modi ‘double engine’ government.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s announcement that his government will repeal the three farm laws came with just a few months left for crucial Assembly elections in Uttar Pradesh and Punjab, which were crucibles of the year-long farmers’ struggle against these notorious laws. It is but natural that the connection between the announcement and the elections will be drawn.

Clearly, the Prime Minister is trying to rescue his party’s sinking prospects in these elections. In Punjab, the Bharatiya Janata Party’s (BJP) prospects are in any case dim, even if it allies with ex-chief minister Amarinder Singh’s new outfit.

The real battleground is UP, headed by Modi’s hand-picked appointee Yogi Adityanath. Under Yogi, India’s largest state has been transformed into another showcase of how aggressive Hindutva governs, and the Prime Minister has been at pains to extend his support to the state government repeatedly. Of course, UP also sends the largest number of members to the Lok Sabha and a tight grip over the state is crucial for winning the 2024 General Elections.

The billion-dollar question is: will this U-turn by Modi win back the angry and discontented farmers of UP? Can BJP repeat its record-breaking performance of winning 326 out of 403 seats last time round in 2017?

Before going into this, it bears repetition that several issues related to farmers' struggle and the laws are still unresolved. The Modi government has to actually repeal the laws through a parliamentary process, which is promised to be completed in the Winter Session that starts at the end of this month.
