Farmers have always been neglected.
by Jayaprakash Balan on Jun 11, 2008 04:35 PM

The riots by farmers was only there to happen and it is not a surprise when one of their own is shot whether incidentally or accidentally. All the years of post independence we civilians especially the political people have always ignored farmers and taken them for granted however harsh is their suffering. No Govt. is ever trying to do their max for the farmers when those people already on the mercy of nature as well exploitation has to suffer at every point. When in fact, farmers are the backbone of any country and they necessarily deserves to be in much better living standards and financial status than many of us. It is a pity that when the entire country lives on a farmer's hardwork they do not basically get seeds or water properly to grow.
