भारतात जागतीककरण व जैविक तंत्रज्ञानामुळे २ लाखांवर शेतकय्रांच्या आत्महत्या

विदर्भही शेतकय्रांच्या आत्महत्येची राजधानी म्हणुन जगात कुप्रसिध्द होण्यास सरकारने कापसासाठी खुली लुट अर्थ व्यवस्था, उधारीकरण बहुराष्ट्रीय कंपन्यांच्या जैविक बियाण्याच्या माध्यमातुन आलेले कृषी वरील पुर्ण नियंत्रण, ३० लाख कापुस उत्पादक शेतकय्रांना कर्जबाजारी तर १० हजारावर शेतकय्रांना मागील दशकात आत्महत्या करण्यास प्रमुख कारण म्हणुन समोर येत आहे. विश्व बँकेच्या दबावाने सरकारने कापसावरील अनुदान बंद केले आहे तर शेतीच्या पाण्याचे खाजगीकरण केले आहे. सध्या अस्तित्वात असलेले प्रमुख राष्ट्रीय पक्ष काँग्रेस व भाजप हे खुल्या अर्थ व्यवस्थेचे व जागतीककरणाच्या धोरणाचे खंदे पुरस्कर्ते असल्यामुळे त्यांच्या विकासाच्या आराखड्यात वंचीत आदीवासी व कर्जबाजारी कोरडवाहु शेतकय्रांना स्थान नसल्याची खंत विदर्भाच्या शेतकय्रांना सतत होत आहे मात्र आम आदमी पार्टीच्या रूपाने सध्या जनता परंपरागत भांडवलदारांच्या नियंत्रणात असलेल्या राजकीय पक्षांना पर्याय म्हणुन पाहत असुन मात्र या पक्षाने आपले आर्थिक धोरण स्पष्ट न केल्याने अनेक राजकीय संस्था व कार्यकर्ते समर्थन देण्यास मागेपुढे पाहत आहेत. तर पक्षाच्या नेतृत्वात गंभीरता नसणे, राष्ट्रीय प्रश्नावर व भारताच्या सार्वभौम अस्तित्वावर आपच्या नेत्याचे अस्पष्ट धोरण यामुळे आर्थिक धोरणाबाबती मवाळ भुमिका आली तर आप पासुनही वंचितांची, शेतकय्रांची व आदिवास्यांची निराशा होईल असे किशोर तिवारी यांनी म्हटले आहे. आप ने आपले जागतिककरण व जैविक शेती यावर भुमिका स्पष्ट करावी अशी विनंती विदर्भ जनआंदोलन समितीने केली आहे.

VJAS urge AAP to clear its stand on Neo-Globalization and GM Seed


VJAS urge AAP to clear its stand on Neo-Globalization and GM Seed
Nagpur-15th Jan 2014
After getting mass base support in Delhi then congress supported AAP to step in to corridor of power in NCR assembly, as per Indian media reports AAP is getting support to play very key role in National Election 2014 to change the rotten system of corrupt traditional politics of all national parties hence AAP which has taken major pro-people decision of  free water and subsidies power now major decision has come to ban FDI in retail in NCR which has forced lot of activist group after NAPM led by Medha Patkar supported the AAP to urge AAP to clear on free-trade, globalization and  complete ban on GM seed and food as these are policies mainly responsible for more than 2 lacs fifty thousand innocent farmers  since 1995 after India singed GATT and started adopting the policies forced by World bank and WTO ,AAP economic stand on these issue is must, Kishor Tiwari  of Vidarbha Janandolan Samiti (VJAS) advocacy group 3 million cotton farmers who are in debt and despair and committing suicides   informed in press release.
AAP icon Arvind Kejriwal visited farm suicide hit west-vidarbha in 2012 and blamed political corruption is only reason of cotton farmers suicides and anti-graft regulator is the only solution to the agrarian crisis but that argument was not digested by many agrarian experts and not taken seriously but now AAP has been projected as National alternatives   to UPA-NDA who supporting neo-globalization, free trade and have allowed MNCs take over control over water, food and in process to grab control over land too through private participation and these anti-farmer policies one hand forcing the thousands of farmers to kill themselves and other hand Govt. talks about second green revolution with help of American genetically engineered technology hence AAP should come out with clear stand on these anti-farmers policies promoted UPA-NDA ,hence this appeal, Tiwari added.

‘one hand the success of AAP has upset political equation of traditional political parties who were busy in accumulating their own wealth at the cost of common man basic needs of water, food, shelter, education and health care ,at the same time it has given hope to the thousands of small activist groups working for stopping farmers genocide and tribal starvation death ,that youth of the country has set up their mind to revolt and change the rusted political system and they are going throw way all corrupt leaders in dustbin by replacing sensitive, accountable and pro-deprived masses Govt. and NAPM decision must be in line with this optimism hence AAP should come out with vision draft of integrated-economic-growth model targeted 90% poor who are innocent victims of present corrupt political system hence these appeals, Tiwari said.

VJAS support stir against “TOLL-PLAZA” Exploitation: Demands to scrap all Toll-Plaza in vidarbha

VJAS support stir against “TOLL-PLAZA” Exploitation: Demands to scrap all Toll-Plaza in vidarbha

Nagpur -13 Jan  2013

Vidarbha Janandolan Samiti activist group  has come out openly to support  Shivsena and all party action committee stir against   rampant corruption and massive exploitation at all Toll-Plazas throughout Kolhapur  and demanded the urged to scrap all BOT agreements allowing such Toll collection centers  where roads  are even completed and damaged and ten time cost of the project is recovered being operated  in to alleged nexus in  political leaders, babus and contractors even judiciary is being used to legitimize this illegal Toll Gate scam by giving misleading information’s  before all toll booths are set on fire like Kolhapur metro   , Kishore Tiwari  President VJAS informed in press release today.
In vidarbha which is backward region of Maharashtra hundreds of BOT roads needlessly constructed with giving exaggerated cost escalations in some cases 10-20 times from real cost of construction ,some of four lane roads have been replaced by good working condition two lane road even when there was no vehicular traffic on the route ,most of BOT operator in vidarbha is business partner of political party in power or main opposition party and this fact is known to all section of civil society and media  till crop of Toll Plaza is mushrooming day by day even after there is strong protest from local residents but powerful mafias are just suppressing the unrest  with muscle power and political-administrative protection and revolt like Kolhapur is only solution for illumination of Toll-Raj in vidarbha, Tiwari added.
‘Vidarbha there is massive backlog of road and under constitutional provision of section 371,Govt. should pay the real cost of project and scarp all agreement  of going or existing BOT road project   other wise Toll-Plaza will give humiliating defeat like Delhi to Maharashtra Govt.’. Tiwari warned .
“Govt. should look in to facts of the study report 2013 done by the Transport Corporation of India and IIM Calcutta that Slow truck speeds on highways and delays at toll plazas are costing the country about Rs.60,000 crore a year, but recent facts are more shocking that more than Rs.60,000 crore  by the BOT operators by way collecting unjustified and unlawful levy  from innocent transporters lastly poor common man has to pay it   hence whole issue on going TOLLGATE scam is national issue not limited to Maharashtra and now time has come to brake  this unholy cartel of top political leaders to stop this flood of tolls and people will have liberty to move freely in this so called liberated democratic India” Tiwari added.
The unholy cartel of Babus-political leaders-contractors and blind eye of media and judicial system as open as sunlight can be seen on NAGPUR-CHANDRAPUR, NAGPUR –AMARAVATI AND NAGPUR –HYDRABAD highways and we are ready provide more concrete documentations of stage managed contracts and exaggerated estimate and then over valued toll-tax collection hence we demand the complete judicial probe over ‘TOLL-GATE’ scam which is much higher than ‘COAL-GATE’ scam, Tiwari added.
‘Last anti-corruption crusader Anna Hazare demanded  closer of all Tolls and threaten stir and surprisingly PWD Minister of Maharashtra  closed more than 27 MSSRDC tolls to pacify  Annaji but after three month all tolls were reopened ,it shows that tolls are being opened and run as per wish and will of minister and unholy nexus between political parties are allowing the misdeed to continue that much more humiliating hence we are supporting stir and will take this issue to all legal forum of redressal ’ Tiwari said .

“the process of multiple tax collection and allowing the BOT Bazar  in this country is matter of serious implications to fundamentals rights of innocent masses and open support of main opposition  parties is matter of shame as people who are fighting against corruption and promoting scams which is unfortunate but people of this country will punish all these TOLL-GATE scammers” Tiwari added.

VJAS welcomes State Govt. decision on Dryland Farming Mission

VJAS welcomes State Govt. decision on  Dryland Farming Mission

NAGPUR: 10 Jan. 2014

Having awaited for last 9 years lastly Maharashtra Govt. has now decided to look in to issues of the 225 hector  farm land, 80% is rain fed in Maharashtra  who are in debt trapped and despair and distress is forcing them to kill themselves and per record of NCRB more than 60,000 dry land farmers have committed suicides  since 1997 hence this important decision, the state cabinet at its special meeting on Thursday gave approval to the Rs20,000 crore Dryland Farming Mission which is a Central government scheme under Bharat Nirman campaign under project a integrated approach to implement all Central and state schemes to be grouped to find ways to improve dry land farmers' economical condition ,this is one of the attempt to introduce sustainable farming  and crop patterns to dying farmers who are innocent victims of MNC base rain sensitive cash crop farming  hence we welcome the decision , said Vidarbha Jan Andolan Samiti president Kishore Tiwari

"The proposal has been awaiting government green signal for quite some time. So, it's better late than never," said VJAS  chief Tiwari. He hoped concerted efforts would be made to wean away farmers from cash crops that have ruined the economy in dry land farming. Welcoming the mission, he said, "Ideally, subsidy or incentive should be provided for promoting food crops."

In Maharashtra total population of the state, 55% is engaged in agriculture and  the 225 lakh hectares available for cultivation, as much as 80% is dry land, without any assured irrigation and totally dependent on natural rainfall. While smaller section of farmers having irrigation facilities reap better, multiple harvests and corner major incentives like water and power subsidies, dry land farmers live under perennial uncertainties. Besides no guarantee of good yields year after year, market fluctuations squeeze their annual income, mostly obtained from single cash crop and these are reasons drawing them in debt trapped and forcing them to commit suicides hence giving focus to dry land farmers was much needed and long pending demand of vidarbha-Marathawada region addressing crisis and efforts to  improve yield, provide allied income generation avenues like fishery and dairy farming, and shifting crop pattern from cash to food crops even the decision has been taken keeping eye on next election but as activist of dry land farmers we welcome the move, Tiwari added.


VJAS support the dryland  mission objective of  multiple crop system, changing crop patterns, changes in intercropping, introduction of private forests, animal husbandry and fisheries but  strongly opposed the introduction  private participation and public-private participation in agrarian sector ,Tiwari said

शरद पवारांचे ५५ कोटींचे कृषी प्रदर्शन- -शेतकरी विधवांचा प्रखर विरोध-प्रदर्शनाचा निधी आत्महत्याग्रस्त कुटुंबांना द्या-तभा वृत्तसेवा

शरद पवारांचे ५५ कोटींचे कृषी प्रदर्शन-

-शेतकरी विधवांचा प्रखर विरोध -प्रदर्शनाचा निधी आत्महत्याग्रस्त कुटुंबांना द्या-तभा वृत्तसेवा

यवतमाळ, ८ जानेवारी

undefinedकृषिमंत्री शरद पवार यांच्या पुढाकाराने नागपूर येथे ५५ कोटी रुपये खर्च करून फेब्रुवारी महिन्याच्या दुसर्‍या आठवड्यात कापूस संशोधन संस्थेच्या पांजरी येथील आवारात आयोजित अखिल भारतीय कृषी प्रदर्शन ‘कृषी वसंत’चे आयोजन केले आहे. विदर्भातील आत्महत्या केलेल्या १० हजार शेतकर्‍यांच्या विधवांनी या प्रदर्शनाला प्रखर विरोध केला आहे.
 विदर्भातील ३० लाख शेतकरी नापिकी व कर्जबाजारीपणामुळे त्रस्त असताना, आत्महत्येचा मार्ग अवलंबित असताना, ३ हजार कोटींची मदत घोषित करून एक दमडीही या सरकारने दिलेली नाही. सार्‍या भारतात शेतकर्‍यांच्या आत्महत्येची राजधानी म्हणून प्रसिद्ध असलेल्या विदर्भात ५५ कोटी रुपये खर्च करून कोरडवाहू शेतकर्‍यांच्या दिवाळीखोरी व आत्महत्येला निमंत्रण देणारे बहुराष्ट्रीय कंपन्यांचे तंत्रज्ञान विकण्याचा गोरखधंदा शरद पवार यांनी बंद करावा, अशी मागणी विदर्भ शेतकरी विधवा संघटनेच्या अध्यक्ष बेबी बैस यांनी केली आहे.
 महाराष्ट्राचे अतिरिक्त मुख्य कृषी सचिव डॉ. सुधीर गोयल यांच्याप्रमाणे शरद पवार यांनी कृषी प्रदर्शनाला ४५ कोटी रुपये, तर महाराष्ट्र सरकारने १० कोटी रुपये तातडीने उपलब्ध करून दिले आहेत. संपूर्ण भारतातून १० लाख शेतकरी नागपूरला येणार असून यासाठी नागपूरमधील १३० मंगल कार्यालये, सर्व सरकारी निवासस्थाने आरक्षित करण्यात आले असून शेकडो बसेस, रेल्वे बुक करण्यात आल्या आहेत. या शेतकर्‍यांना सरकार ज्या कापूस तंत्रज्ञानामुळे विदर्भात मागील दशकात १० हजार शेतकर्‍यांनी आत्महत्या केल्या ते ‘तंत्रज्ञान’ दाखविणार काय, असा प्रश्‍न शेतकरी विधवा अपर्णा मालीकर यांनी उपस्थित केला आहे.
 सध्या विदर्भ ही शेतकर्‍यांच्या आत्महत्येची राजधानी होत असताना नागपूर कृषी प्रदर्शन भरविणार्‍यांच्या राजधानीचे स्थान म्हणून समोर येत आहे. भारतात सर्व जिल्ह्यांच्या ठिकाणी कृषी विज्ञान केंद्र आहेत, कापूस संशोधन परिषदेचे भारताच्या चारही दिशांना संशोधन केंद्रे आहेत व राष्ट्रीय स्तरावर शेकडो कृषी विद्यापीठे आहेत. तरीही नागपूरला सार्‍या देशातील शेतकरी आणून त्यांना विदेशी कृषी तंत्रज्ञान दाखविण्याचा ‘प्रयोग’ शरद पवार करत असल्याचा आरोप विदर्भ जनआंदोलन समितीने केला आहे.
 या प्रयोगाला विदर्भातील शेतकरी विधवांचा नैतिक विरोध असून हे सरकार डॉ. स्वामीनाथन समिती व डॉ. नरेंद्र जाधव समिती यांच्या शिफारशी मान्य करूनही काहीच करत नसल्याचा त्यांचा आरोप आहे. उपासमारीला तोंड देत असलेल्या १० हजार शेतकरी विधवांना साधे अन्न व आरोग्य सुरक्षा आणि शिक्षण सवलती देण्यासाठी सरकारांजवळ पैसे नाही हे कारण समोर करीत आहे. त्या केंद्र व राज्य सरकारांजवळ ‘या‘ उधळपट्टीसाठी ५५ कोटी रुपये कसेे उपलब्ध झाले, असा सवालही शेतकरी विधवांनी केला आहे.
 सरकारने हे नियोजित ‘कृषी वसंत’ प्रदर्शन रद्द करून ४५ कोटी रुपये विधवांच्या कल्याण निधीला दिले नाही, तर प्रदर्शनाच्या पांजरी येथील मुख्य दारासमोर शेतकरी विधवांचा उपोषण सत्याग्रह सुरू होईल, असा इशारा शेतकरी विधवांच्या हक्कसाठी लढणारे विदर्भ जनआंदोलन समितीचे नेते किशोर तिवारी यांनी दिला आहे.

Vidarbha consumers protest Aadhaar-based DBT and Nationalized Bank Account condition

Vidarbha consumers protest Aadhaar-based DBT 
and Nationalized Bank Account condition
Nagpur 3rd January 2014
Even  the Supreme Court’s (SC’s) is his  interim order on Aadhaar 23rd September last year directed Govt.of India not to make  the unique identity number mandatory for domestic cooking gas subsidy ,oil companies are still going ahead with its time bound plan making natiliased bank account kinked with UID Aadhar card compulsory is being protested by rural vidarbha consumers  as Aadhar Card is not being made available even they are paying more than Rs.500 and waiting for months together moreover nationalized banks are asking minimum Rs.1000 for opening account hence majority of consumers in tribal rural part of region are being deprived of the subsidy hence they are demanding that the direct benefit transfer (DBT) scheme for delivery of subsidized cooking gas should given with consumer connection details and existing local cooperative bank or post account with UID and nationalized bank stringent condition ,kishore tiwari of activist group Vidarbha Janandolan Samiti VJAS informed in press release  today .
“In rural part the private payers who have been authorized by Govt. to issue UID Aadhar card has made mockery of process as there is no rules and accountability and people are charged more than Rs.500 moreover there are not getting cards even after six month of waiting more over nationalized banks in rural part of India are asking for Rs.1000 as minimum amount for opening the account and KYC norms documentation as per RBI guidelines which is not possible for majority of tribal and debt trapped farmers hence more than 70% consumers have failed to complete formalities and will not covered under   direct benefit transfer (DBT) scheme for delivery of subsidized cooking gas, forcing them to buy from open market hence we are asking union Govt. direct benefit transfer (DBT) scheme can be done without UID Aadhar card and it can be transferred in local rural bank account or post account very easily hence this request ”Tiwari added. .
‘When there is relief by the Supreme court on its  23 September order which has directed  the government not  make Aadhaar numbers mandatory for availing the benefits of government services and subsidies, including Aadhaar-based DBT is aimed at crediting government welfare payments and subsidies directly to the bank accounts of beneficiaries as there are around 140 million cooking gas customers in the country ,we are till confused why UID Aadhar card compulsion when it is not having any constitutional status and not governed by any law of the made by parliament hence such instruments being created valid ID with an executive order of babus which is being distributed in a haphazard way crating more scope for corruption and misdeeds needs to stopped without further delay’ Tiwari added.
