OVERDUE LOAN WAIVER SCHEME FOR FARMERS BY FINANCE MINISTER
by Pawan Sharma on Aug 07, 2008 04:34 PM

In the annual budget announced by Mr Chidambaram FM, over due amount to farmers was waived off upto owners of 2 hactares and above this only 25% amount if balance is paid in equal instalments.

Pl note the farmers who suffered drought in Maharastra, Bundelkhand in UP and MP in the last 5 years. Indian politics is dead about this huge loss and tries to befool all such highly affected farmers. Current rains this time is again making farmers helpless as they do not have funds to invest in agriculture in this area. All govt claims are fictitious with full of malpractices.This anomaly must bne removed rather than waiting for elections to spoil this further without giving any help to affected ones.
