If it is true that thousands of farmers have committed suicide, then it is scandalous for sure. However, one needs to find out why did it all happen. Did the farmers get whole of the loan sanctioned to them or there was a cut at the bank? Did the farmers use the loan for the purpose for which it was sanctioned, that is, for cultivation, buying farm cattle, farm machinery, etc. or did they spend it on dining and wining at naming ceremony, hair shredding, marriage, or repaying loans taken from the local lender?
