New laws will cause more farm suicides, warns SUCI(C)

Referring to the recently amended farm laws, the Socialist Unity Centre of India (Communist) SUCI(C) said that the implementation of the laws in question would deepen the agrarian crisis and result in more farmers’ suicides. “These farm laws are designed to allow big corporate houses to plunder the farm sector. The implementation of the laws would lead to more exploitation of farmers and push them into the deepened crisis. The country has already seen more than 3.5 lakh farm suicides. These laws would push more farmers to commit suicide. We have to force the government to completely repeal the laws at any cost,” H.V. Diwakar, a member of the State committee of SUCI(C), said at a press conference here on Monday.
