Why is the Kisan Movement not starting in a big way in Bihar?
The opposition leader of Bihar state, Tejashwi Yadav is appealing to the farmers of Bihar to support the peasant movement, but so far these young RJD leaders have not taken to the streets taking the farmers of Bihar in this movement. Opposition parties in Bihar may have appeared on the streets through this movement, but so far the opposition campaign has not been able to pressurize the government through the peasant movement. We all should know that the APMC Act in Bihar has been abolished in the year 2006 itself.
A Congress MLA had targeted RJD youth leader Tejashwi Yadav a few days ago, saying that there was a fake movement in the name of farmers in Bihar. In this movement of farmers of India, we should be seen in reality. With the help of technology and social media, there is no presence in the movement.
If the leaders of the Grand Alliance want to intensify the movement in the right way, they will have to make a solid strategy and join it themselves. Even after this, no concrete strategy has been seen regarding this in the Grand Alliance. The Congress and RJD leaders are targeting the state and central government on the agricultural law by holding a press conference, but the right is far from the struggle.
Senior leader of United Kisan Morcha, United Kisan Morcha, who is associated with the Kisan agitation on the borders of Delhi, in protest against the recently enacted agricultural laws of the Central Government also reached Patna, the capital of Bihar and appealed to the farmers here to join the Kisan movement. Despite this, the farmers here have not yet taken to the streets.
Farmers of Tall region of Bihar and convenor of Tall Development Committee, Anand Murari, say that the farmers here have been the trust of traders from the beginning, who have agreed to its destiny. He said that the farmers here mainly do traditional farming and they do not mean much by agricultural laws.
However, Anand Murari (a farmer of Bihar) also said that there was a peasant movement here in 2017, which also benefited the farmers here. When asked about the opposition leaders seeking support for the movement, Murari says that the farmers of Bihar live in villages and the leaders of the peasant movement are coming to Patna seeking support from the farmers.
Farmer Shyam ji Pandey (a farmer of Bihar) believes that in Haryana and Punjab, mechanization has become involved in agriculture, because the organization of farmers there is strong. He further states that the farmers of Bihar have a lot of lack of capital. These people are financially very weak. He said clearly that if the farmers here agitate, then who will work in the fields?
