PM serious of farmers’ issue. Govt likely to announce Rs 8000 crores relief package for farmers. Kairana impact?

After the major defeat in the recently held parliamentary and assembly bypolls in Uttar Pradesh, ( the largest contributor of member of parliaments to the Lok Sabha from where the BJP won 73 seats with a resounding majority out of total eighty in 2014 ) as well as in other states, the BJP’s top leadership seems to have become extremely serious on this count and has once again started announcing various concessions and populist measures etc. despite the fact that these pre poll promises made a day before by the Uttar Pradesh chief minister Yogi Aditya Nath has completely failed to convince the voters of Kairana and Noorpur assembly seat and the candidates of the united anti BJP opposition had won from both these constituencies hands down.

The U P chief minister Yogi Aditya Nath had assured the electorates of Kairana which is primarily a Sugar Cane Belt that their 13 thousand crores balance payments on the Sugar cane mill owners would be recovered within the the next two weeks after the election but the badly disenchanted Sugar cane farmers of Kairana parliamentary contituency were hardly influenced and convinced by the saffron clad Chief minister of the largest state who also annoyed majority of the minority community by eloquently saying during his address that though the issue of Ganna ( Sugar cane is significant for them (BJP) but it nonetheless lessens the saffron party’s agenda of JINNAH and that his government will ensure that come what may, Jinna’s picture will not be allowed to be decorated in Aligarh Muslim University.

Anyways, after returning back to India from his whirlwind foreign tour Prime minister Narendra Modi has taken the incessant four defeats of Phulpur, Sitapur, Noorpur and Kairana extremely seriously and has announced immediate concessions for the farming community of Uttar Pradesh, particularly the farmers of the Western and central Uttar Pradesh who are into Sugarcane farming since ages and were badly disenchanted with the state as well as the central government led by BJP for not fulfilling their demands pertaining to the non payment of the balance amount due on the Suger mill proprietors to the tune of 13 crores in UP itself.

As per the news pouring in, after having been tremendously affected by the recent defeats right from Kairana to Noorur to Maharashtra to Karntaka the BJP’s top leadership duo Narendra Modi and Amit Shah is likely to declare the financial relief package ofRs 8000 crores forsugarcane famers currently reeling under the crisis of impending arrears of Sugarcane mill owners since long. In addition it has also committed of making storage arrangements of 30 lakh tons of produced Sugarcane in the immediate future. Meanwhile the Uttar Pradesh CM jas just concluded tbe cabinet meeting to announce numberof major reliefs for the farmers in UP.

This great likely announcement after losing the significant Kairana bypoll in particular will also benefit the farmers of Maharashtra, Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh, Jharkhand and Punjab who also produce maximum Sugarcane after Uttar Pradesh.

In addition the union government has also announced of withdrawing the tax incurred on the exported Sugercane as well as lessening of the import duty on Suger in with immediate affect.

According to the news analysts the results of the recent bypoll losses have immensely shaken the confidence of the top BJP leadership including the prime minister as the media have been attributing these losses to his degrading and downsliding charisma and political image.

Modi is worried that since 2014 the entire credit for the state victories in about 20/ 21 states of the country were bestowed on him as a charismatic and an invincible leader , (so), similarly the discredit for shameful defeats in Phoolpur, Sitapur, Alwar, Rajasthan, Bihar, Kairana, Noorpur, UP, Maharashtra, Karnataka etc were also debited into his personal account thus bringing a bad name to his otherwise shining nation wide popularity.

Therefore he had no option but to fulfill these long pending farmer’s grievances as well as satisfying the entire farming community of the country who is today annoyed against his government for not fulfilling their demand for fixation of the minimum support price for their produce as well.

The farming community these days is on a ten day strike expressing their high annoyance and disenchantment by literally throwing vegetables and milk on main highways to divert peoples’ and government’s attention towards them.

Today the nation’s agrarian crisis is widening excessively with farmers suicides still uncontrolled.

If 2019 has to be won, prime minister Narendra Modi will have to give up rhetorics and populist measures than to give actual concessions to the people of the country on employment, agrarian sector, women safety, price rise, petro products, infrastructure, health and housing front.

The increasing activity on the anti BJP front in view of the united anti Modi opposition is slowly and steadily taking concrete shape has infact started exhibiting positive results for them.

The examples of Karnataka and Kairana compounded with major defeats in other by elections are enough unambiguous examples to prove home the point that all is not good for the BJP and prime minister Narendra Modi in 2019.
