Bhubaneswar: The Congress should give moral support to the farmers' movement for the repeal of the three arts and agriculture laws enacted by the central government and the immediate repeal of the law. Dhenkanal District Kisan Congress President Biprabar Sahu chaired a meeting of Dhenkanal District Kisan Congress President Ramakrishnapur near Bhubaneswar in Dhenkanal district yesterday against the central BJP and state BJD government's policy of killing farmers.
The farmer Mahapanchayat was made the secretary of the All India Congress Committee and in-charge of Odisha. Rudra Raju inaugurated the event as the chief guest and said that in the coming days, farmers' mahapan panchayats would be held at all district levels in the state and there would be strong protests against the agriculture and farmers of both the BJP and BJD governments. Addressing the function, Odisha Pradesh Kisan Congress President Shri Amiya Patnaik said that today the Narendra Modi government is cheating the country's food donors. It will never be tolerated.
This government is not in the interest of the farmers but in the interests of the capitalists. A blazing example of this has been a long 74 days in the cold, with farmers' unions demanding the repeal of the Black Agriculture Act, but it is unfortunate that the government has turned a blind eye to it. The Prime Minister himself questioned where the increase in the price of agricultural produce had been halved on the basis of Swaminathan’s recommendations in the two general elections. He demanded the repeal of the art law and the provision of legal guarantees in the MSP, as well as the state government to buy all the surpluses of the farmers and implement a bonus of Rs.
The farmers' mahapanchayat was inaugurated by former PCC vice-president Shuvendu Mohanty, Dhenkanal district Congress president Saroj Patnaik, state Kisan Congress vice-president Umesh Sahu and senior Congress leaders from various blocks.
