Punjab Vidhan Sabha Speaker S. Kultar Singh Sandhwan highlighted that 767 farmers committed suicide in Maharashtra in just three months. We can say that approximate eight suicide committed by farmers per day which is very unfortunate and painful. This is not just suicide of Andata, it is complete failure of our system
He stressed that only 376 farmers families got Government help and remaining families got nothing even after death. Those who promised to double farmers income, but they are not able to protect farmers precious lives.
Speaker Sandhwan appealed to Government of India and Government of Maharashtra to take appropriate steps to improve the financial condition of farmers and also provide financial assistance to the bereaved families.
He said there is a dire need to review the present agricultural model as so many farmers are committing suicide and Government of India is not providing accurate data pertaining to suicide of farmers.
