Then why are they committing suicide?
by Manoj M on Jul 18, 2007 07:00 PM

If the farmers are so well settled, people working on farms depend on it for their livelihood, fishermen depend on it, etc, yet they keep committing suicide. These corrupt NGOs themselves want money in the name of farmers. Pay them & all would be fine with SEZs. I also have the same questions, 99% of all taxes paid in India on which the country runs are paid from urban areas, eyt, the farmers who are dependent on our taxes don't want our say in anything else. An acre of land on which they woould make 50000 in an year in a good year, for which they are getting 10 lakhs is not enough. Ask them how much they sell this land to the money-lenders for drinking? It may not even be in single digits. This is the only agricultural land in the country fetching a million rupees & you have people agitating. They should be put in jail.
