Six delegates from Chhattisgarh will attend the 35th Kisan Sabha meeting in Thrissur beginning on the 13th, where a strategy to step up the fight against anti-farmer policies will be developed.
Raipur. Over 800 participants from throughout the nation will attend the All India Kisan Sabha's 35th National Conference, which runs from December 13–16 in Thrissur (Kerala). In this conference, a strategy will be developed to combat anti-farmer, anti-agricultural policies of the Center and the states on a national scale and to grow the organisation. The Chhattisgarh Kisan Sabha will send 6 representatives to this national meeting.
Sanjay Parate, the Chhattisgarh Kisan Sabha's president, provided this information in a press release. He claimed that the three anti-agricultural laws of the Central Government have been the target of a nationwide, coordinated uprising for one and a half years. As a result of this uprising, which has claimed the lives of more than 750 Annadatas, the Central Government has been forced to rescind these anti-farmer laws. If these agricultural regulations had been put into effect, corporate businesses would have controlled the nation's agriculture. The Kisan Sabha made a significant role to the Kisan community's historic victory in its fight against the central government's anti-people policies. The fundamental concerns of farmers have risen to the top of national politics as a result of this conflict on a national scale.
Despite this victory, he claimed that there is still widespread opposition to basic issues like the lack of housing for landless people and poor farmers, the need for laws to set a minimum support price that is 1.5 times the gross production cost, subsidies for fertiliser, seeds, water, pesticides, and other agricultural inputs, and the need for 200 days of full-time employment. A plan will be developed during this Kisan Sabha conference to support the national movement on these concerns with the aid of labour organisations. There will also be a call for the Labor Code, which discriminates against the working class, to be repealed.
According to the Kisan Sabha leader, a plan will also be finalised at this conference to put into practise the motto "Kisan Sabha in every village and every farmer in Kisan Sabha" in order to increase the organization's membership to three crore in the following five years. The All India Kisan Sabha now has 1.5 crore members. To enhance the organisation, efforts are being made to establish its active units in each of the districts and tehsils across the nation.
He disclosed that Rakesh Tikait and other Sanyukt Kisan Morcha officials would also speak at the AIKS meeting. All "Amar Shaheed Kisan Jyoti Yatras," planned to inform the farmer community about the conference, will arrive in Thrissur by tomorrow, December 12. To attend this national meeting, the general secretary of the Chhattisgarh Kisan Sabha, Rishi Gupta (Surguja), Prashant Jha and Jawahar Singh Kanwar (Korba), Kapil Paikra (Surajpur), and Bifan Nagesia (Balrampur), have travelled to Trishur. A sizable kisan rally will take place on December 16 to close the conference.
