Thousands of tons of wheat have
rotten in a Begusarai govt godown juxtaposed with the starving crores. Even the
Supreme Court had directed free distribution of such wheat instead of causing
rot.
Another news that pains me is
that Punjab farmers are forced to burn potatoes for lack of even minimum fair
price for their produce. They are forced to sell it @Re 1/kg while in the
southern India its price is sky-rocketing. Why are not the Union & the states
buying the potatoes at minimum support price and offload it in the parts of the
country that are deficient in its production?
It is insensitivity and a mismanagement
rather misgovernance.
