A GOOD BEGINNING & FRIENDS CAME FORWARD TO DONATE GENEROUSLY (18th Mar 2010, 1040 Hrs)


A GOOD BEGINNING & FRIENDS CAME FORWARD TO DONATE GENEROUSLY (18th Mar 2010, 1040 Hrs)

Yesterday, it was a hectic day for all the last minute preparation. Sameer Gambhir donated the ‘Donation Box’ and added another contribution of Rs. 500/- for a start. He even opened a separate bank account for me for this movement. Jaya Bhattacharya donated Rs. 2000/-, Kushal Sharma added another Rs.200/- from his side, writer Nareshji (assisted Anees Bazmee in WELCOME) donated Rs.251/- and a new friend Shiva Tripathi gave Rs.100/-. Another friend Devesh Sharma donated Rs.20/- and promised he would add a bigger amount in next couple of weeks.

With so many people backing up, I am sure my countrymen will come forward to help this cause and with all the help from one and all of our beautiful nation… we will be able to inch one step towards eradicating farmers’ suicide from our nation, which has plagued the nation for many many decades now. Making the farmers self-reliant and continue farming are the aims of this movement and at the same time, with all the help from the beautiful citizen of India… we will be able to produce more food for the nation.

I know, it seems like a big dream project but with one step at a time, we will all inch towards achieving the unexpected

Yes, I have plans to use all the money raised in productive ways to make these families self-reliant rather than make them the centre of pity... I will be involving each villager to learn to move ahead with the changing times to earn more from their produce by introducing various methods to overcome their poverty stricken lives... At the same time, I want them to continue farming so that the percentage of farmers shouldn't reduce because of all these suicides... the more the farmers, the more the produce and the more the nation will be...

At the same time, by interacting one-to-one with the mass, I will be generating awareness about our callousness to overlook such a serious issue and how they can change to safeguard lives of their children's future...

At the same time, I will be counselling all the farmers of villages I will be visiting as to why they shouldn't commit suicide in near future... use their expertise in their respective creativity to overcome obstacles in life for their decent living... The support I have been getting from all over the world proves that HUMANITY is still alive in this wonderful world of ours, where GREED and being EVIL are aplenty...

Lesser farmers in the world mean less food in every nation. Less food means high prices... the future looks very dangerous for all the children today of every single nation... Farmlands are being converted into concrete jungles or corporate companies are exploiting them to the fullest without realizing as to what will happen when there will be no farmers and farmlands left in the world... what will the children eat then???

As I mentioned earlier, I will be the bridge between the urban and the rural population... those of us, who live in urban cities don't even think once from where we get all the food and how hard the farmers have to work every day in hot sun and rain... so my movement will generate this awareness in the urban cities so that we all can help the rural belt...

A lady writer-poet Fellpony from UK wrote to me with two strong beautiful words 'Never Fear', which has given me great courage to start my movement with no fear at all. I feel really blessed that God, my Sai Baba has opened my eyes to work for the suicide farmers’ families.

Thank you one and all,

ENCOURAGING REACTIONS AND SUPPORT FROM FRIENDS (14th Mar 2010, 1530 Hrs)

ENCOURAGING REACTIONS & SUPPORT FROM FRIENDS (14th Mar 2010, 1530 Hrs)

Yesterday, the day was hectic but really worthwhile in every which way… Support and reactions from friends were indeed encouraging and heartwarming… so that means I am really not alone in my mission. I am blessed to have friends who think alike to support such a difficult mission.

While people (a writer IT professional Abhijit Rudra from Calcutta; Josie, a granny poet from London; a poet-writer Ron from Holland) I have never met in person (they follow my work at
www.greatwriting.co.uk & blog) have been showing their concern and support in their own ways, friends in Mumbai from various fields have not only pledged their support but they also guided me in the right way. Indeed, I felt blessed!

Sameer Gambhir and Jaya Bhattacharya (Film & TV actor) have lend me all their support by discussing various pros and cons of the movement in great detail as we spend near about an hour and a half… they have also pledged financial support in setting up the basic necessities and I know such great friends will be always there by my side in this movement. Another great friend AA from Hyderabad has even donated Rs.500/- even before I have started my mission and he has assured me of all help that I would require.

I did messaged some of my celebrity friends yesterday throughout the day… singer Hema Sardesai, actor Naved Aslam, Vinay Kalantari, Fashion Designer Bhumika Chedda, actor Moushumi Chatterjee’s actor daughter Meghaa, photographer Akshay Kulkarni and my Rakhi sister Dr. Anandita Malik have come forward to wish me all their support and best wishes. I know there are many, who would read my blog posts to finally come forward to support the cause in few days time.

In the late evening, I had two T-shirts printed for the movement with my mission’s captions –

Front:

200,000 FARMERS’ SUICIDE
1997 – 2009
& STILL COUNTING…

EXCLUSIVE BLOG - http://support4suicidefarmersfamilies.blogspot.com (13th Mar 2010, 1030 Hrs)

EXCLUSIVE BLOG - http://support4suicidefarmersfamilies.blogspot.com (13th Mar 2010, 1030 Hrs)

The blog is dedicated to all those poor Indian farmers, who have committed suicide due to debt & distress and no sign of relief from government. All related post on Indian Farmers & My One-Man-Crusade Experience will be posted now in the exclusive blog


THINK HARD: What will happen when all our farmers will commit suicide or else migrate to cities in order to survive... YES! There will be no food...Prices will skyrocket & the government as usual will blame on farmers without really helping them...

As it is farmlands are being sold to big corporate companies to establish their car factories and other industries… farmers are being made guinea pigs to serve greed for these rich corporate houses. Less farmland means Less Produce and more the prices will rise in future. If these farmers are not supported enough to continue with farming, from where will all the food grains come? Have you ever thought about such a grave situation in coming years… what will happen to your children when they grow up? It will definitely lead to man eating man phase… there will be war every single day for food.

I may not be able to serve all the farmers’ families but yes, a little start will save at least a few of them to lead their lives with dignity and they will work hard for the progress of the nation in a very-very small way. I am all set now and from 18th March 2010, you may follow the blog for every day update of my mission.

Till then, join me in helping the farmers of our nation in a small way.

SAVING THE FARMERS’ FAMILIES IS THE PRIORITY OF MY LIFE NOW (12th March 2010, 1455 Hrs)

SAVING THE FARMERS’ FAMILIES IS THE PRIORITY OF MY LIFE NOW (12th March 2010, 1455 Hrs)

Till yesterday, I was highlighting the plight of the poor farmers in my blogs (
http://dspenexecuteseverything.blogspot.com / http://johnnydbombay.mid-day.com) to raise awareness among blog readers.

Today morning, a lightening struck me to start one-man-crusade to support these affected families in my own small ways by involving the people of India and the world. No, I will not be starting an NGO like others because I don't wish to lose the mission that I am planning to start. I have decided now to dedicate my life to these farmers’ families so that my country’s farmers can live a decent life to grow more crops for my nation.

Every single day, I will travel the length & breadth of my city Bombay with a Donation Box and request people to just donate ONE SINGLE RUPEE... till I collect Rs.10 Lakhs or more (to start with the initial movement) and then go to affected villages and support the families with money... this is just the beginning and I will try my best to do what I have planned now... My every day experience will be updated in my blog post and collection done during the day, so that everyone who donates can read the progress of my sincere effort and development... This I plan to start from the 18th of March 2010...

We often forget and negate the “Power of One”. However, I strongly believe that every movement starts with ONE SINGLE STEP. My English Teacher Mr. KK Roy Choudhury in Calcutta, (the man responsible to teach me how to write correct English…however, I still commit silly mistakes hahahah… I was very poor in English grammar in my Xth Class and Mr. Roy Choudhury is the teacher with Perfect Grammar… the proud Indian, who even taught the British the “Correct Usage of Grammar” with his valuable contributions to various English Authors & Oxford Publications) always used to say – “Why are you writing about films, actors and actresses? How does it benefit you? I can understand that you have to survive but then do something worthwhile in life.”

His words used to haunt me so much that one fine day I quit ‘Film Journalism’ once for all. I felt better and did write on various other subjects, like Architecture, Interiors and Property. However, the current scenario of dirty politics in various media houses made me to quit main stream media. I found solace in writing on various topics in my blogs (with no restriction to please my editors) and realised that there are serious readership following me worldwide. Honestly, I feel so good and content when I raise issues that are plaguing the nation and the world, which needs serious selfless action to solve them. However, it is only today, I realised that by simply writing about all these issues, I was also one among the billions, who just talk, write and discuss things but do simply nothing. So what is so wonderful about writing my blogs? As such, I am not able to help farmers’ families who suffer because of no money or aid from the government.

I am really glad that the lightening struck me in the morning today to lead me into a new direction to make my life worth living. It's just the beginning... While there are billion and billion dollars wasted in silly wars and world conference on global warming, no one really even uses their COMMON SENSE to think what will happen when all the farmers will die or else migrate to city??? Do they really care about these poor people? NO! I have no grudges against any of the rich elite as they are leading their lives as they must have surely worked hard to enjoy life... I have enjoyed my life too as a ‘Film Journalist’ and seen the best and the worst about their culture... one can say, it is my awakening to do something for the downtrodden in my own small ways. I am very emotional about all the farmers' death (whenever I read the newspapers) and realise that someone has to do it... there are many individuals and NGOs who are doing a lot for these farmers but still there is definitely something wrong because we have not been able to stop these suicides as it is growing in numbers every single year.

I do hope many people will come forward to DONATE just ONE RUPEE to save the farmers’ families from their plight. The food that we all waste daily either eating in hotels, restaurants or at home… indirectly and directly suffocate lives of these poor families and mind you all, all I am going to request is to donate ONE SINGLE RUPEE. So from 18th of March, when you see me in trains, streets or in front of a mall, please-please donate your precious ONE RUPEE…

Thank you one and all…

6278 MAHARASTRIAN FARMERS COMMITTED SUICIDE IN THE LAST 9 YEARS @ AN AVERAGE OF 2 FARMERS’ DEATH PER DAY (11th Mar 2010, 1030 Hrs)

6278 MAHARASTRIAN FARMERS COMMITTED SUICIDE IN THE LAST 9 YEARS @ AN AVERAGE OF 2 FARMERS’ DEATH PER DAY (11th Mar 2010, 1030 Hrs)

10 farmers from Vidarbha Region committed suicide in the last three days (6 in Yavatmal; 2 in Akola and 1 each in Nagpur and Washim districts) taking the toll of total farmers’ death (suicide) to 6278 in the last 9 years and 69 days… and what is Ashok Chavan government doing or in that matter what is Shiv Sena & MNS doing for their own Marathi Manoos dying due to detroiting conditions of life that Vidarbha farmers have been facing since the past one decade??? All these leaders are bothered and worry about is to release Shah Rukh’s film with 40,000 plus police force; create an ambience of hatred in Mumbai for silly reasons trying to show their concern for Marathi Manoos… but they feel no pain or even open their eyes when their own farmers die because of government mismanagement…

Pathetic that these leaders are worried and show to the whole nation as to how to lick the rich to suppress the poor… Majority of the farmers are in total distress because of drought, flood and crop failures in the region and since there is no other income generating means for these poor farmers and no sign of government relief (State or Cnetral Government) that are announced with so much fanfare by respective leaders through the media circus… sadly, these farmers have no option but to end their lives so as to escape to pay their loan amounts to banks and loan sharks… One wonders, why the government has closed their eyes to such a grave issue that is haunting the nation’s agragrian sector when 70 per cent of the population depend and earn their living from agriculture… And here we are all geared up to watch the silly game of cricket and crores and crores will be spent on security and safeguarding foreign players while our poor farmers commit suicide due to lack of means of living… with no security cover at all.

While the 6278 farmers may have ended their lives by committing suicide but what happens to the families of these farmers? From where will these 6278 widows bring in the money to pay the loan sharks debts that their men had taken? How will these 6278 widows feed their children? Who will safeguard these 6278 widows’ families and others… who must be planning to end their lives like these 6278 farmers? It is not about 6278 lives that have been lost but on an average if one family has four members, almost (6278 x 4 =) 25,112 lives get affected. All the promises and lies announced by Prime Minister and Chief Minister show what the ground realities are in the interior rural India… All the relief announced remains only in paper, which is then divided by respective leaders (that is how they become crorepatis) involved to be finally deposited in their Swiss Banks Accounts and surprisingly, all these black money are utilized by terrorist to kill more of countrymen… No wonder, every single country’s government is indirectly supporting the “Terrorism Industry” knowingly so they can rule over the poor citizen of their respective nations…

When will we make our government to be not answerable but be active to stop these poor farmers’ death? When will Manmohan Singh, the Prime Minister of our nation wake up from his deep slumber to help the farmers and stop supporting the rich industrialists with subsidies and privileges? 6278 farmers’ death in 9 years makes it to 697 farmers’ death / per year; 58 / per month and 2 / per day… Imagine all these deaths are happening when our President Pratibha Patil is a Maharastrian, our Agriculture Minister Sharad Pawar is a Maharastrian and not forgetting the Chief Minister Ashok Chavan is a Maharastrian… and these people are more concerned to feed the Pakistani Bastard Qasab Chicken Biryani by spending 31 crores per year to keep him still alive even after more than 1 year and 3 months… Hang that bastard and give the 31 crores to the families of these 6278 farmers’ families… at least they will grow more food grains for the country… what the f*** that bastard is going to give us??? More DEATHS from his f****** country… IS THAT WHAT OUR CORRUPT LEADERS WANT???

GENOCIDE OF A MODERN ERA IN INDIA (9th Mar 2010, 1340 Hrs)

GENOCIDE OF A MODERN ERA IN INDIA (9th Mar 2010, 1340 Hrs)

Welcome to the modern era of genocide in India folks! You really don’t need a bloody war in the modern era of genocide. Mind you, there are no nuclear bombs, weapon of mass destructions, modern arms, ammunitions or gadgets and one really doesn’t even need the most advance Drone aircrafts to create genocide… all it requires is ONE SIMPLE POLICY (the non-violence ways of Gandhi) in Official Government Paper with the signature of the Head of the State – the Prime Minister!

GENOCIDE: (n) Deliberate extermination of a race or people

The above is the dictionary meaning of the word in Chambers English Dictionary…

Please note: “Deliberate” is the word used to describe all the killings and that is how the government policy makers create these modern day genocides by their vicious greed-linked thinking to exterminate the poor farmers; farmers, who feed the nation; farmers, who will not hesitate to go hungry to toil in the hot sun all day long for others; farmers, who are selling their wives (while our leaders are fighting for women’s bill) to feed their families because the government aid is announced but never reaches them; farmers, who have no other option but to lift guns to safeguard irrigation water from others; farmers, who sell their produce cheap to the middle men (brokers) so that their countrymen can buy them in higher prices (to be cheated because of government policy and distribution system); farmers, who never get relief or aid from the government of the nation in full and timely (amount promised or announced by various Chief Ministers or Agriculture Minister or else the Prime Minister ; farmers, who have to pay the highest rate (in the nation) of interest to get a meagre amount of Rs. 8000/- so they can buy the seeds; farmers, who are committing suicide because of government policies… farmers who are being killed in a modern day genocide by government with no arms and ammunitions…

Yes, we are talking of 200,000 farmers, who have committed suicide or died due to debt and distress in the last 12 years (1997 to 2009) in various parts of interior India. They didn’t die my folks, because they were deliberately killed by the government, who are too busy to serve and lick arses of 311 Indian billionaires. 200,000 farmers death in 12 years make it 46 / per day; 1388 / per month and 16,666 / per year – Yes, they are deliberately being killed by the government of India and it is even worst than all the genocides in the world that history has ever witnessed during various wars and evil dictators’ regime because our Prime Minister’s image (Manmohan Singh) seems to be too cute, kind and a weakling in physical stature… however, while 46 farmers were being killed every single day of the last 12 years, NO ONE, I repeat, no one has really bothered to put a stop (or check) to the genocide that is happening in interior India.

The figure of 200,000 farmers death were mentioned in the award winning documentary NERO’S GUESTS by Deepa Bhatia, who followed Magsaysay Award Winner P Sainath for the last five and a half years in rural India to cover farmers’ suicides to make this hard-hitting documentary, thereby, revealing the real picture of rural India and the modern day genocide that the government is so proud of to mention economy growth of 8+ per cent… growth that stands tall on 46 dead farmers per day or growth that needs a special mention in the world that stands tall on 1388 farmers death per month or growth that Manmohan Singh’s Government is so ecstatic about which has been built on 16,666 farmers death per year since the last 12 long years… 12 LONG YEARS… EVERY SINGLE DAY 46 PRECIOUS LIVES OF INDIAN FARMERS WERE BEEN EXTERMINATED DELIBERATELY with no one to care for and no one to ask or demand an answer… as the government and the nation were busy to release a film of Shah Rukh Khan…

All these deaths are deliberate as the government has not even bothered to stop these numbers to decrease since the last 12 years to violate the International Human Rights. The modern day genocide is achieved in such a subtle manner and proper planning that it is neither visible to the International Human Rights Oraganisation of the UNO or else even media doesn’t report such deaths with much fanfare as they do highlight the DGP Rathore molesting a 14 year-old girl Ruchika and still roaming scot-free from the clutches of the great Indian Judicial System. The families of these 200,000 farmers are still struggling to make their two ends meet and are running from pillar to post to get relief from the government bodies.

If you remember the poor farmers of Bundelkhand selling their wives to moneylenders for couple of months so that they could feed their families is the stark reality of modern day violation of International Human Rights… when the news broke in the media (only in CNN IBN), after two days, the NCW Chairperson Girija Vyas asked for a 48-Hour Probe in August 2009… well, neither the Home Minister, Agriculture Minister, Finanace Minister, Prime Minister, Sonia Gandhi or else Rahul Gandhi (who fakes to care for the poor to gain vote banks for his mother’s party Congress) even bothered to issue a statement when wives of poor farmers were being sold in the country… is this what GROWTH of the nation’s economy is proud of… as obvious, the news died down after exactly three days and no one has heard what the 48-Hour Probe had to say about its investigation of such a callous act… but obvious, it shows that all the leaders mentioned above were hands-in-gloves to achieve such a genocide to feed the 311 billionaires

These genocides are state sponsored and it is not only the farmers who are facing their extinction from the rural belts but also there are poor tribals, who have been living since decades in interior jungles of various states, who are being raped by Special Police Officers (SPOs), beaten mercilessly, killed for not vacating their land (as they live in the rich mineral deposits and corporate companies want the land to extract and make billions from the minerals beneath) and not to mention their houses of tree logs and straw are burned, their children are tortured to an extent that toddlers’ fingers are chopped off by the SPOs mercilessly and without any remorse. I wonder how all these leaders sleep their sleep with so many deaths on their heads! I really wonder as to why the International Human Rights Organisation have closed their eyes as well, when so many farmers and tribals are being deliberately killed in the name of economic growth by the government of India???

When one Indian is attacked down under in Australia, the Home Minister, the Foreign Minister, the Prime Minister, the Electronic and Print Media – all spring into action by condemning the act but here within India, our own country 200,000 farmers death doesn’t even get any serious thoughts forget about the actions by the leaders mentioned above. While the leaders are busy fighting issues of regionalism, languages and separate statehood… not even a single leader in the country is worried about the GENOCIDE… WHY? I ask why such callous attitude towards the farmers, who toil hard in hot sun to feed the nation? In spite of all the adversities to live a life without proper houses, sanitation system, drinking water, electricity, medical facilities… these farmers are delivering faithfully towards their nation’s requirement of food, so we can all eat well and grow into a healthy nation… so why has the government failed them since our Independence… why the government is hell bent to kill them in thousands… why the government is creating such genocide??? WHY? WHY? WHY?

My sincere request to one and all, please talk about this serious issue with your fellow members, your families and everyone you know as to how we are eating all those food items, which is coloured in HOT RED BLOOD of 200,000 farmers death, courtesy the Government of India. Please spread the awareness so that each one of us will have to think a thousand times when we waste food because of our arrogance to be rich and wealthy… speak, write and ask more questions as to why the International Tribunal of Human Rights and the World have closed their eyes to put an end to this MODERN DAY GENOCIDE! All these leaders should be punished for their wrong doings by killing these poor farmers by the WORLD!!!

I just pray that people who read this will not let the issue to die down… please-please save the farmers of my country!!!! Is UNO listening? Will the MEDIA please highlight this serious issue to demand the government for immediate action and take good care of the families of 200,000 dead farmers… One last request to the government, Please Stop This Modern Day Genocide!

200,000 FARMERS DEATH IN THE LAST 12 YEARS – GOVERNMENT & THE NATION ARE STILL SLEEPING... (2nd Mar 2010, 1500 Hrs)

46/per DAY; 1388/ per MONTH; 16,666/ per YEAR = 200,000 FARMERS DEATH IN THE LAST 12 YEARS – GOVERNMENT & THE NATION ARE STILL SLEEPING... (2nd Mar 2010, 1500 Hrs)

166 Lives lost in 26/11 Mumbai Attack & the whole nation woke up to burn candles... but when the people who feed the nation commit suicides, NO ONE REALLY CARES!!! Irony of being an Indian!

Truly so, because when 26/11 happened the Chief Minister of Maharastra and India’s Home Minister were made to step down by the government as well as on public pressure… however, on an average 46 per day, 1388 per month, 16,666 per year farmers have been dying since 1997, totaling to a major number of 200,000 farmers who have died due to debt and distress… and YES, neither the Nation or the Prime Minister are really bothered about these deaths… isn’t it surprising? While the Home Minister and Chief Minister of Maharastra is more concerned to release an SRK movie…

Where are we heading folks and truly so I feel ashamed to be called an Indian, where the Finance Minister is more concerned about the 311 billionaires to raise petrol and diesel price rise and give subsidies to all private airliners and the metropolitans are more concerned about – ‘Where’s the party tonight?’

What is more surprising is that the Finance Minister Pranab Mukherjee reveals and claims that the rising price in essential food items are benefiting the farmers (THE BIGGEST LIE THE FM HAS EVER UTTERED IN HIS POLITICAL CAREER)… so much so that every single day 46 farmers are dying, either because of hunger or else committing suicide… these facts have been revealed by award winning documentary filmmaker Deepa Bhatia in NERO’S GUESTS, who has documented Magsayay Award Winner P Sainath’s long and difficult struggle since the last five and a half years. The article BITTER HARVEST by Radha Rajadhyaksha was published in Times of India dated 27th Feb 2010.

‘No one cares about us’ – is what most farmers say and truly so, while the nation is struggling and complaining about the price rise, no one has even bothered to look into the homes of these poor farmers, whose families are struggling hard to make their ends meet. No relief from the government reaches them in time and even Rahul Gandhi and the Prime Minister have confessed that only 15 paise per rupee reaches the affected farmers… imagine 85 paise are stolen by none other than government agencies (that is how every Congress leaders and government servants are becoming crorepatis nowadays)… So where do we really go from here folks?

Almost 70 per cent of the population is still dependent on the agriculture sector and the the Prime Minister, Rahul Gandhi, Finance Minister, Home Minister and Agriculture Minister are all claiming that price rise have benefited the farmers while hoarders (supported by local politicians) have made all the crores… is this what the nation is proud of for its 8+ per cent growth… growth at the cost of 46 lives per day (since the last 12 long years) of farmers who grow food for the nation??? Does this growth really deserves pat on PM Manmohan Singh’s back and the billion plus population should say KUDOS MANMOHANJI… you and the Congress have done a great job for killing 200,000 farmers in the last 12 years…

Since the plight of the farmers have not been heard or solved since the last 12 long years, activist in various place say – ‘Perhaps the only way is to kill, to attack. Perhaps this will open their eyes.’ Now tell me Mr. Chidambaram, if these poor farmers are given such a harsh treatment and no choice at all to survive… why will they not lift guns in their hands to fend for their lives, as it is they are dying because of government policies??? And then you will launch Operation Green Hunt with all your might like George Bush to kill them by calling them NAXALS… IS this how the Indian Government operates to suppress the poor and downtrodden Mr. Home Minister??? 311 Billionaires Vs 200,000 Dead Farmers!!! Where is the justice?
As P Sainath puts it – ‘In the last 15 years INEQUALITY has been our FASTEST GROWING SECTOR as it has grown faster than at any time in our history since the British Raj.’ While banks are too happy to lend the rich loans at 6 per cent with no collateral to buy another Mercedes, the poor farmers are not even given loan amounting to just Rs 8,000 at decent rate that they can afford to pay… now why this injustice is meted out at the nation’s farmers who are toiling hard in hot sun to feed the nation and starving their own families??? It was the same Rahul Gandhi, who shouted aloud at BJP for laughing at a farmer’s death… so what has he done really to control the 200,000 deaths in various villages of the nation??? Well, we all know he was busy promoting Shah Rukh Khan’s film for 4 long hours in Mumbai to show Congress’ might in the state!
A release of Shah Rukh’s film is more important for the Gandhi Scion and the Congress rather than save 46 lives of poor farmers, who are dying daily in various parts of interior India…
The nation wants answer from the callous government as to why nothing is being done to save these lives… aren’t they precious like the elite who died at Taj and Trident Hotels on 26/11? Are they not Indians Mr. Prime Minister? Is this what the biggest democracy of the world is all about? Kill the poor to feed the rich…

P.S: I do hope more bloggers will write about this to spread the message worldwide about the GENOCIDE our Congress government is responsible for… will the International Court of Justice punish the Indian leaders for such a heinous crime???
