Fears of farmers regarding agricultural ordinances still remain. Meanwhile, the President of Bhartiya Kisan Union (BKU) and former Rajya Sabha MP Bhupinder Singh Mann has written a letter to PM Narendra Modi on this issue.
The farmer leader said in the letter that in the present form these ordinances will not help the farmers. Rather it has created a fear that the minimum support price (MSP) is being removed. He has given some suggestions to the PM in this regard.
Mann said, to remove the fear of ending MSP, an ordinance should be guaranteed that farmers will get MSP. All buyers must be legally bound to purchase on MSP. Whether they are government or private. Strict legal action should be taken against the violators.
Apart from this, the 9th schedule should be amended and agriculture lands should be excluded from its purview so that farmers can knock the doors of courts for justice. Whereas the current state of the law creates a situation in which the farmers have not yet got independence "slave farmers of a free country".
