I think the farmer plays the same role for our country as the backbone for the human body.The problem is our farmers are suffering from many problems.Sometimes, many of them cannot even eat two times food a day, despite all the difficulties that they face, they play an important role accordingly. They are the country’s food producers.
Before the 1970s, India was not able to produce enough food to meet its needs.In other words, India was not self-sufficient in terms of food grains.We imported large quantities of food grains from overseas (mainly from the United States).This went well for some time but later USA started blackmailing us on business also threatened to completely stop the supply of food grains.Then Prime Minister Lal Bahadur Shastri accepted the challenge and gave the slogan “Jai Jawan, Jai Kisan” and took some drastic measures, which resulted in Green Revolution.Due to this we became self-reliant in the matter of food and even started as well.India has never looked back since then our farmers have never disappointed us, even though they are facing many problems.They are able to meet the demand of the growing population.
One of the biggest contributors to the Indian economy: Farmers contribute about 17% to the Indian economy.Even after that, they lived a life of poverty.If we are able to overcome various obstacles, there is a good chance that this percentage will improve.All farmers are self-servants, they are not dependent on any other source for employment.
We have come a long way since independence but there is still much to be done.I am sure, if we work honestly, we will be able to overcome the problems we are facing today and God will become as beautiful and prosperous to prepare our villages as Bollywood films.
