Address the Grievances of the Farmers Immediately

The governments, amidst their toil for their crony capitalists, hardly find time to attend and resolve the grievances of the farmers.Neither the worsening health condition nor the top court order to save the life of farmers’ leader Jagjit Singh Dallewal, who is on fast-unto-death strike demanding legal guarantee for Minimum Support Price for the crops has opened the eyes of the authorities.This indifferent approach of the authorities towards the strike has invited strong protests in Punjab, and the total bandh in the state testifies to the severity of the people’s protest. Solution to the strike is not shifting Dallewal to hospital, but meet the demand he has raised through the hunger strike.SDPI along with demanding to save Dallewal’s life, also demands the government initiate effective dialogue with the farmers to meet their just demand.
