Disconnect from ground, ambiguities and deficiencies galore in the APMC Bypass Bill 2020.
*farmers' freedom was not curtailed earlier either in state APMC Acts
* trader to trader transactions are being regulated now - that cannot be farmers' produce

It is unclear why separate definitions and clauses have been included for Farmers’ Produce (Sec.2(a)) and Scheduled Farmers’ Produce (2 (j)) when the intention is to de-regulate both, but one category now put under state APMC Act discretion!!? #APMCBypassBill 2/13
Sec 2(d) Farmer means a person engaged in production of farming produce by self or by hired labour or ...and includes FPOs! FPOs not engaged in production & cannot be equated with Farmer. Why regulate decisions within autonomous farmers’ body with decisions made by farmers? 3/13
