Early Times Report
JAMMU, Feb 20: BJP Govts Anti Kisans (farmers) mindset has been badly exposed after the cabinet the decision of the union Govt. to leave it to Kisans if they want to get their crops insured or not as announced by Union Agriculture Minister Narinder Tomar after the cabinet meeting, reacting sharply to the decision of Union Cabinet Ajay Kumar Sadhotra Former Minister and Senior Leader Jammu and Kashmir National conference.
He said it is a sad and unfortunate decision. He alleged that BJP Govt. at the Centre and in Jammu and Kashmir has adopted Anti Kisans Policies instead of making FASAL Bima compulsory and increasing Govt. share of Premium in insurance of Fasal from 50% to 90%, as is being given in the North East States, Govt has decided to leave it up to Kisans to decide whether they want to ensure their crop or not.
Sadhotra emphasized that it is the duty of the Govt. to ensure that crops of the Kisan are fully insured and in case of any eventuality Kisans could get immediate adequate compensation at least the full cost of sowing. It will give a sense of security to Kisans. National conference Senior Leader slammed that BJP Govt. is in habit of giving hype and then withdrawing or not fulfilling its promises as Pardhan Mantri Fasal Bima Yojna. Kisans suffered badly since this Pardhan Mantri Fasal Bima scheme was started as Banks and Insurance companies exploited poor Kisans for their gains and BJP Govt. only promoted the interests of Bankers and Insurance companies ignoring the interests of Poor Kisans.
