Yogendra Yadav, others release green paper on Indian agriculture

-The Financial Express

Yogendra Yadav’s Swaraj India and some other organisations have released a ‘green paper’ on the status of Indian agriculture and termed the current government ‘most anti-farmer’. According to the ‘green paper’, the government reneged on its core and solemn promise of revising MSP on the cost plus 50% formula, by solemnly affirming in the Supreme Court that this formula suggested by the National Farmers’ Commission and also promised by the BJP election manifesto was unworkable”. Yadav also said this government actually brought down the routine annual increment in MSP to a level lower than the previous UPA rule. He cited how the Centre stopped the existing practice of states offering bonus on select crops over and above their MSPs. He said the Centre has shifted the debt relief burden to state governments.

Yadav added that the government shrugged off its responsibility in the Supreme Court by telling that it is a matter of state. Yadav also said no state has implemented the Right to Fair Compensation and Transparency in Land Acquisition, Rehabilitation and Resettlement Act, 2013, and the Centre is responsible for it.
