Understand that mother of all reforms is being unleashed in India right now with farm sector ordinances

Don't let Communists stop this like they stopped Land Acquisition Bill

First understand how existing system exploits the farmer.

A farmer cannot sell his own produce anywhere. He has to go to the local sarkari mandi (APMC), pay a commission and sell.

Do I have to tell you the kind of mafia and corruption in these mandis?

So Farming ordinance removes these requirements completely. A farmer can sell his produce to *anyone* anywhere in India.

Second, no more commissions to APMC mafia.

They can buy and sell on online platform with ZERO commission.

Now you only tell me, which is better? Going to local mandi mafia or transaction online?

Ask your parents about the nightmare of buying train tickets when online was not there.

Same torture farmers go through every time they sell their own produce.

Naturally, Dynasty TV and its kaun jaat ho reporter is fearmongering on the new ordinance.

Which party do you think was traditionally controlling this mafia for generations?

Another farming ordinance says that govt will no longer control prices of essential commodities (except in war time or if price increases more than double)

You tell me: in last 30 years, hasn't everything become better with deregulation?

(6/n)

50% of Indians work in agriculture, but our productivity is one of the lowest in the world.

What did farmers get from 70 years of regulation?

Only suffering!

How many debt relief packages we will give?

Only de-regulation and free market can save Indian farming.
