AJKYF extends support to national vide farmers’ protest | Roll back three black laws against farmers: Sanjay Sandhu | | EArly Times Report
Jammu, Dec 12: "It is unfortunate that there was no consultation undertaken by the central government at the time of promulgating the three black ordinances and subsequently pushing the bills through parliament against farmers" said Ch. Sanjay Singh Sandhu, Incharge Jammu Province and Executive Member of All J&K Youth Federation while extending support of youth federation to the protesting farmers nationvide by holding a digital protest against the central government. Ch. Sanjay Sandhu further said that the pro-corporate and perceived anti-farmer provisions in the farm laws, the Union government has by-passed the federal structure by legislating on subjects that exclusively fall within the domain of the state government under the state list of the Seventh Schedule of the Constitution and the global experience across agricultural markets demonstrates that corporatisation of agriculture without a concomitant security net in the form of an assured payment guarantee to the farmers results in the exploitation of farmers at the hands of big business. Ch. Sanjay Sandhu added that the primary cause for concern is the systematic dismantling of the APMC mandis, which have stood the test of time and have provided farmers the remuneration to keep themselves afloat. “The farm laws open the field to an alternate set of markets/private yards, where the buyer will have no statutory obligation to pay the minimum support price (MSP). Since the said markets/private yards will not be charged any market fee/levy; the agricultural sector will see the gradual shifting of trade from the APMC mandis to these private yards" He added. Ch.Sanjay Singh Sandhu further added that the market fee collected by the APMC mandis is used for the development of rural infrastructure, link roads and storage facilities. The shifting of trade to avoid payment of any levy/market fee by private players and the Food Corporation of India (FCI) will eventually witness the redundancy of the APMC mandis, leaving the farmers at the mercy of the corporate sharks. Prominent among those who joined were Imran Farhat, Aakriti Sharma, Shruti Sharma, Shivangini Sharma, Megha Sharma, Sahil Sharma, Komal Choudhary, Suhani Sharma and others.
