In the last five years, prices of farm produce have been volatile. For instance, soyabean prices have swung from Rs 1200 to Rs 4000 a quintal and pluses price Rs 24000 to Rs 74000 a quintal.

Government should understand that this kind of apathy and indifference first leads to death,destruction of an entire people and next logical stage is inclusion in the RED CORRIDOR.It is exactly this ,which culminates into a fertile breeding ground for anti-state sentiments.
The government both at the centre and the state should try to help the farmers and prevent their suicide but,the government is more interested to help unscruplous anti-India minorities and no the rightful citizens of INDIA.the government extends all kinds of help to so called disadvantaged minorities which should precisely be given to orphaned children of drought ridden Vidarbha
