Farmers who have been agitating for four months have declared Bharat Bandh today. But the way people were interested in the issue of farmers till the beginning of January or February, it is no longer visible anywhere. The focus of the media is no longer on farmers.
In the last four months, there have been 11 rounds of talks between the government and the farmers. The last proposal from the government was given to hold all three agricultural laws for a year and a half. But the farmers are adamant about eliminating them.
Rakesh Tikait, spokesperson of the Bharatiya Kisan Union (BKU), says, 'The movement has not cooled down at all. The ruling BJP is campaigning like this. The media has also started showing the movement a little less, but the movement is moving with the same vigor as it started. And we will not end the agitation till the agricultural laws are back, '' he said.
BKU farmer leader Dharmendra Malik furthers the point, saying, "Those who are thinking that the movement is running only along the border are wrong." Now, this movement is going on at the district level in every state. So that there is no loss of farming of farmers and the movement should also continue. Farmers say that the movement is now moving forward with a new strategy. So what is the new formula to take forward the peasant movement?
New strategy of farmer movement
Farmer leader Rakesh Tikait is in Harbaspur, Dehradun today. There they will share their demands and the forward strategy of the movement with the local farmers. BKU leader Dharmendra Malik says, 'The peasant movement has now been decentralized. For the harvesting of sugarcane and sowing of wheat, the farmers also have to live in their village and on the other hand, the movement has to be carried out. Therefore, senior farmer leaders are going district-wise and holding meetings.
Farmers' organization workers are reaching the villages below in the district for meetings. State President of Uttarakhand Kisan Manch Bhopal Singh says that we are reaching farmers by planting chaupals in villages. Explaining to them about the strategy of coming to the border as part of the rotation process. So that there is no loss of agriculture also and the movement should not be cold.
What is the 'rotation' formula of movement?
The new strategy was formulated after the number of agitating farmers in the Ghazipur border, Tikri Border, and Singhu border decreased. Farmer leaders are doing chaupal in villages. Till now dozens of meetings have been held in Punjab, Haryana, and Western UP. In these meetings, separate teams of farmers are being formed in groups of 10-30 at the village level. One party goes to the border and the other party stays in the village. So that movement and farming continue simultaneously.
People are also joining the movement under the rotation process at the level of households. Baljit Singh, who came from Amritsar, returned to his village on 13 March. He was active in the movement on the Ghazipur border since 3 February. The day Baljit Singh returned home, his son Tejendar joined the movement. Tejendar will return home from here on March 28, and on April 1, Baljit Singh will again come to the border for agitation.
Decentralization of movement
Rakesh Tikait says, "If we have made a program for years, not months, then the strategy will also have to be made accordingly. Along with rotation, decentralization is also being used to move go from village to village.
Till now hundreds of Mahapanchayats have been held in at least 10 states. The Mahapanchayat will continue even further. So far 4-4 in Madhya Pradesh and Uttarakhand, 12 in Uttar Pradesh, more than 20 in Punjab, 3-31 in Haryana, 10 in Rajasthan, 3 in Karnataka, 2 in Bihar one in Orissa, dozens of maha panchayat in three days in Bengal She went. BKU farmer leader Dharmendra Malik says that a mahapanchayat will continue in every state of the country similarly.
Farmer leader Gurnam Singh Chaduni said that they have held dozens of meetings in different districts in Punjab so far. "People are not getting reduced in the movement, but as a strategy, we are motivating some people to live in the village and some in the border," says Chaduni. So that the business of the people does not come to a standstill and the movement also continues.
Farmers are being prepared for further agitation at Mahapanchayat and Chaupal levels. If needed, this time more than 26 January, farmers from north to south and east to west will camp in Delhi. Bhopal Singh of Kisan Manch says, "This time, tractors will enter Delhi, not in the number of thousands."
Parliament will be closed, now whom will farmers surround?
Rakesh Tikait had recently told the farmers, "If they do not get the minimum support price for the crops, they should come to Parliament and sell their crops." Because the government says that they can sell crops wherever they want. ' But now Parliament is at a standstill, then how will farmers sell crops or surround it in Parliament? On this, Dharmendra Malik says, 'What happened if the Parliament is closed, farmers will camp around the houses of those sitting in the Parliament. Farmers will reach the leaders' houses with tractors full of grain.
Movement on the border faded, farmers falling?
Farmer leader Gurnam Singh Chaduni says, 'The farmer movement is not fading nor the number of farmers is decreasing. If 10 farmers go back, 20 farmers come to join the movement. At present, more than 40 thousand farmers are agitating on the Singhu border. Some of these people stay throughout the day and leave at night. ”Dharmendra Malik also says,“ An exact number of agitators cannot be told, because farmers are constantly coming and going. No such register has been made, but at least 10 thousand farmers in the Ghazipur border and 30-30 thousand farmers in the Tikri border are still permanently. '
Differences in movement
Many farmer leaders do not agree with the peasant leaders campaigning against the BJP in West Bengal. Darshanpal, a member of the Communist Party of Marxist and a farmer leader, says, "Instead of campaigning against the BJP, we should talk about the peasant movement and the demands of the farmers, because whatever the outcome of the election, it should not affect the movement. Darshanpal Singh, on the other hand, says that the election results of West Bengal can influence the movement, but he does not care about it. Joginder Singh Ugrahan, president of the Bharatiya Kisan Union (Ugrahan) is also not in favor of campaigning in favor or opposition of any party in the contested states. He argues that 'our organization cannot say who should vote or who should not. We avoid the politics of vote. '
