Empowering Farmers - The new hope to boost up the economy

 The new farmer bill may act as a sanjeevni to debacled economy. Just like 1991 was remembered as watershed movement after dismantling License Raj and introducing FDI and FII. Our Agricutlure sector is controlled by Agriculture Produce Marketing Committee (APMC). Under this all the products have to be delivered in mandi first. No doubt APMC was introduced to protect the farmers, but now these mandis are transformed into local monopolies making it obsolete. Farmers have restricted buyers due to middleman with fixed buyers, pricing, contract farming and restricted investment. 


India from last decade has the vast production capacity but we know how farmers still being exploited instead of giving good supply to buyers. On other countrary farmers are being burdened with huge loans, where the money gone?

These major concerns is bringing farmers' produce trade and commerece bill, The Farmers' agreement on Price assurance and farms service bills, 2020 and the Essentials commodity Bill 2020. Initially it will be as complex as GST was during its introduction time. But Farmers will realise thier existance freedom from middlemen. Farmers can now directly contact the food processing industries, Farm Serivice provdiers, which may help in increasing more number of jobs.


Recently due to corona Crisis many workers have returned back to thier native place most of them planning to start farming and this bill will give them new light. It is a fact during Slowdown, Economy recovers through Agriculture sectors. India being the largest producer of milk and secondar largest producer of cereals, fruits, vegetables and fish, Still India's food market export sahre stands at 2.3% . The bill if introduced properly may bring our nation as the export powerhouse in the future

Life Balancing

There is a contradiction that human being has to be either focussed or have balanced living? Arjuna in Mahabharata saw only an eye of a sparrow, he was too focussed. can he be a ruler? here he lacks skills. at the age slot of 25-30 years or after education, human life enters into grihasthashram,  During this period, being too focussed may be problematic as now one has many priorities, Balanced life what I mean is relationsihps, work, fitness, emotional well being and yes knowing yourself. One must know that one acts multiple roles. Giving priority to one and procrastinating to other leads to disbalanced life. So what is the balanced life mantra? 1) Regular exercise : Don't get too distracted on making your abs.  J ust half an hour  is sufficient. While exercising we must feel the fresh air, pain and body movements. Your exercise session will be fun 2) Meditation: This is the time you know live with yourself, giving time to your self .  We all get bogged down wit...

I was a boy tranformed to a man

 Hello Everyone,  I was a boy, I have been recently transformed into a man where contributing is prefered over acquiring.  Teenagers calls me "uncle" and yes I have to accept it. I have now responsibility to earn money for my family. I have to listen to the rudeness of the people without my fault. I must look strong but decent too. I can't cry like before. I can't be mad or rude. I need to first think before I speak. Being a man family comes first before your career. I can't play with school going children, because their fathers are now of my age.

Novels have been replaced with Office files. Outlook is the mostly used software instead of  online games or online chat softwares. Being a man I think before eating as now I am overweighing. I prefer taking home made food instead of junk food. Late night sle...
