The sharp focus of the 2004-05 budget is on agriculture and irrigation, which along with the power sector account for 61 per cent of the annual plan. The allocation for irrigation alone has virtually doubled — from Rs.2,178.92 crores last year to Rs.4,245.72 crores this year — with the Government committing itself to a time-bound completion of 26 on-going and pending irrigation projects. Considering the mass distress among farmers and the continuing tragedy of suicides, it is about time the Government made the farm sector its top priority and helped the farmers come out of the crisis. But the Rajasekhara Reddy administration must also realise that success on the farm front is largely dependent on the availability of water — in time and in sufficient quantity. The Krishna delta may have to depend on Karnataka sharing water. The Chief Minister would do well to initiate a dialogue with his Karnataka counterpart and ensure that farmers are not starved of water this year, as they have been in the past three years on account of a poor monsoon.

Suppose for one moment this crazy thought is true. That people are taking their lives because a government has announced compensation for their families. What does it say of the society that we've built this past decade? That a farmer would rather take his or her life and get Rs. 1 lakh for the children rather than go on living amongst us? It speaks far less about them, far more about us. It also ignores the fact that there were a huge number of suicides in 2000-01 when the `compensation' had long been stopped. |

Regarding compensation, that's a catch 22 situation for any politician.
It's one of the situations where you are considered as hyper when u act and you end being branded as dogmatic for not acting. Again, I would like to quote the author here
"the irony of article being, suicides increased when there was more socialism , when ysr announced packages then it increased the suicide rates, when babu with his capitalistic principles prevailed, suicides were low."
Indulging in the blame game is not the solution here. Having announced the immediate relief measures, the current government should try to work hand in glove with its central counterpart and ensure that the objectives listed in the new agricultural policy succeed in the coming years!

Amar,
You have valid points! Socialism is out of question and I don't think The Hindu is mooting for that political philosophy.
I understand that every society has to endure some sacrifices if it were to make some structural changes to the functioning of its society. But the price is paid to make the society a better place, but not a worse one!!
Industry and services are needed but there are several countries, whose economies are flourishing now just by getting their basics right. Vietnam, a war torn Nation's economic rebound in recent years, is a classic case in point.
South Korea is a country which successfully graduated itself into a industrialized nation. But their leaders had the compunction and the far sightedness to simulatenously address the grieviances of the farmers while playing to the interests of its elite class!
Change is essential and I am sure no rational person would ever challenge that! But that should come about in a phased manner!! Take our education system for instance! Our country had the best engineering talent for decades now but it took time for the world to recognize it! Similarly, it will take some time for our industries to become global players!
Relentless pursual of making them global champions in a shorter interval will only result in cataclysim!

even after so much rambling, the author didnt give a good reason why the farmers waited untill the govt changed at the center to suicide, but he rather used the opposite of it to claim , people wont take lives one morning as govt changed.
there has to be catalyst to such mass suicides, let the author come with a valid point of what the catalyst is.
i with my common sense say , compensation is the catalyst driving people for that unthinkable.

gimme an example of a country where socialism succeded?
matrix loni concept correct ga saripotundi, human describe cheyadaniki. if there is a perfect world, man will be extinct.
The hindu and its communism philosphy is nothing new.
the irony of article being, suicides increased when there was more socialism , when ysr announced packages then it increased the suicide rates, when babu with his capitalistic principles prevailed, suicides were low.
i vote for the unequality in the world which makes humans more progressive.
if i were given a option where i can control my brain and live in peace, i would rather avoid it as there is never a progress unless there is struggle.
take the example most of the cold countries, they were more prosperous than tropical places as its the necessity that drives them to innovate.
all western countries were mostly based on nomadic princples as they have cold climates, they were forced to migrate for a livinng, they were forced to invent the heat, protect their food from weather, thats how man progressed, through necessity and struggle.
we in india and africa were having all resources and so had alaid back life, so we are destined to be a failure, but now since we were forced into backwardness, its now time for India to progress.
this is my philosphy.
