🔰 Essential Commodities (Amendment) Bill

This bill seeks to remove commodities like cereals, pulses, oilseeds, edible oils, onion and potatoes from the list of essential commodities.

🔴Will allow stockpiling and promote black marketing
This bill gives freedom to anyone for stockpiling but:

🔴realistically only rich corporates with large godowns will be able to make best use of it.

🔴an average farmer or shopkeeper have limited or no storage space at all, so this bill plays into the hands of the corporates.
🔴Also, it is beyond understanding why this bill was so urgent that it was passed by the President (under Article 123) during the peak corona time.

I request all people from CA fraternity to gather at #SinghuBorder . We should learn from our Annadata friends about how to blackmail an elected government. Ease of Doing business can go to hell.

People you're seeing in TV posing as locals of #SinghuBorder are NOT locals. Infact, locals are extremely warm with the protestors. This is what real locals have to say!
No one has a problem with protestors at #SinghuBorder. Who were the ones who came to protest??
