One of the most telling moments of the current farmer protest in Delhi is a shot of a man in uniform, masked and all geared up for battle raising his baton against a farmer in a pyjama kurta with a flowing white beard, a blue turban, and complete confidence. One man representing the state, the other man representing the farmers. Really speaking they should not be at odds. One protects society through law and order, the other protects society by filling our plates with food. And, yet from the visuals trickling out of Delhi, there seems to be pitched battle between two of the most important pillars of society \u2013 those who uphold order, and those who till the land.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The background for this protest is the 3 agriculture bills<\/strong><\/a> that were signed into legislation at the end of September. The Farmers’ Produce Trade and Commerce (Promotion and Facilitation) Bill, 2020; Farmers (Empowerment and Protection) Agreement on Price Assurance and Farm Services Bill, 2020; and the Essential Commodities (Amendment) Bill, 2020. Rather than debate and discuss the bills and listen to concerns that people may have \u2013 the government used its overwhelming majority to ram through the bill without taking on board the concerns raised.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The three farm bills were contentious enough for the BJP\u2019s long-term ally, the Akali Dal, to walk out of the government<\/strong><\/a> and the NDA. Sukhbir Singh Badal<\/strong><\/a>, took to twitter to make the announcement which said, \u201c Shiromani Akali Dal core committee decides unanimously to pull out of the BJP-led #NDA because of the Centre\u2019s stubborn refusal to give statutory legislative guarantees to protect assured marketing of crops on #MSP and its continued insensitivity to Punjabi and #Sikh issues.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Farmers from four North Indian states \u2013 Punjab, Haryana, Madhya Pradesh and Uttar Pradesh- are currently in Delhi protesting against the new laws pushed through by the Government, that promise to transform agriculture. While the BJP calls it reform, the opposition and farmers groups call it a death sentence. It looks likely that farmers from Andhra Pradesh, Maharashtra, and other states will join them. And, like many other events of the last 6 years \u2013 the problem is the unwillingness of the Government to sit down and explain what it does and how it will benefit people, in a clear manner. The Government has been good at broadcasting its intentions \u2013 using its tremendous clout among the malleable mainstream media to put out information on why it was good. But, if the Government really wanted to reach out to farmers and convince them, then it could have put in the kind of effort that it does during elections. The<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the core of the Modi Government reform and the passing of the 2 new pieces of legislation, is the stated objective of freeing up the agricultural system. The new laws will ease the regulation and restrictions around how agricultural produce is priced, sold, and stored. Additionally, the new laws allow the entry of private sector buyers to buy and store essential commodities for the future. Something that critics say will allow large players like Reliance and Adani to buy produce during a bumper crop and drive down prices and be able to sell it later without the original producer making anything out of the bounty. Another major change is liberating the farmer from the necessity of selling the produce only at designated government approved Mandis and free them up to sell to anyone.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Critics say that all these reforms will only help big business and big farmers \u2013 leaving out the remaining farmers in the cold. Many have likened this set of legislation to that of the East India Company. They believe that these laws are the first step in big business taking over their land and making them landless labour (at some future date).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The problem with the Government is not the intent. The problem is that it seems to exist in an echo chamber of courtiers \u2013 both on media and social media \u2013 who add their \u2018chorus of yes\u2019 to much of what the government undertakes. A pliant media \u2013 especially TV media \u2013 looks at the Government with rose tinted lenses and can see nothing wrong with what the Government does \u2013 be it the overnight demonetisation of currency or the 4 hour lockdown that left hundreds of thousands of people stranded. It is this echo chamber of darbaris and hangers on that is diverting the government from its core duty of listening to people and talking to people.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Any law that is passed needs to have the consent of the governed. And this consent is not so difficult to acquire. After all, the Government is headed by one of the greatest communicators of ll time \u2013 Narendra Modi \u2013 a man held in affection by large swathes of the population. All that the government needs to do is get out of its echo chamber and talk to the people. Ultimately India is bigger and more diverse, and more opinionated than the IT cell and its extensions. It might be good for the Government to get out and have their chai and charcha with the population at large.     <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
