00:30The movement is going on, Mr. Dallewaaz and Mr. Pandhar,

00:32who were our two co-organisers of the two farmers' unions.

00:37And for the last eight to nine months,

00:38they have been sitting at the border, at the Khannuri border.

00:41Day before yesterday, a very big meeting took place there.

00:44And in the same way, in our Tohana,

00:48in a corner of Haryana, which is separated from Punjab,

00:53Mr. Rakesh Trikesh and everyone else,

00:54a very big panchayat of farmers has taken place there.

00:57As far as food is concerned, I think it should not be considered food.

01:01This is not food.

01:02In fact, in every state, in a different way,

01:05our farmers' panchayats are being held all over the country.

01:09And they are being held for the reason that

01:11when all over the country, with full strength,

01:14we have the same demands,

01:15which we had given to the Indian government three years ago.

01:20Today, as it is, it is in the hands of the Indian government.

01:24They have not taken any action on it till date.

01:27Now, as far as the situation is concerned,

01:32Mr. Dallewal's situation is very delicate today.

01:37And even in that delicate situation,

01:39the Supreme Court, which is our highest court,

01:42has also taken its judgment.

01:44Despite that, the Indian government is not listening.

01:47They talk about the state.

01:48It is not a matter of Punjab and Haryana.

01:51This is not a subject of the state.

01:53And the biggest movement on behalf of the MSP

01:56that they have started is a matter of the central government.

02:02So far, the movement of the central government...

02:04The movement that the farmers are doing

02:05is only in front of Punjab and Haryana.

02:08The farmers of the whole country do not come to the movement.

02:10No.

02:11Our last movement was not only of Haryana and Punjab,

02:15but also of Haryana, Punjab, Rajasthan,

02:18Madhya Pradesh, Uttar Pradesh, Maharashtra,

02:21Tamil Nadu, Karnataka.

02:24Our Indian Farmers Union, which we call the ticket group,

02:28our union is 18.

02:30In 18 states of this country, we have a union up to 100.

02:34And every official and worker of our country

02:37was involved in that movement.

02:39And even later, whenever...

02:41The Sanyut Kisan Morcha was there earlier,

02:43we are still with the Sanyut Kisan Morcha.

02:46All our leaders of the Sanyut Kisan Morcha,

02:51whatever decisions those leaders will take,

02:53we will fight that battle with strength.

02:57The British government says that there is no need to protest in Haryana.

03:00The MSP is being given here on 24 crops.

03:04There is no need to protest the farmers of Haryana.

03:07No, this is the same thing.

03:08The government of Haryana, the Chief Minister of Haryana also says

03:11that we are giving on 24 crops.

03:13But now tell me that where there are 5 or 6 crops in Haryana,

03:18the 18 to 20 crops that are there in Haryana,

03:21you are talking about their MSP?

03:23I am saying that you should talk to the central government.

03:27You say that the MSP that we have written,

03:30and the MSP...

03:32I am not just saying this about the MSP.

03:34I have never said this.

03:36It is not our demand that the crops of the MSP

03:40that are grown in the farms of the farmers,

03:42the government should buy all of them.

03:44I have never said this. This is not our demand.

03:46Our demand is that the MSP that the government of Haryana

03:51has decided on the price for the farmers,

03:54the government should buy as much as the government needs.

03:57Even today, the government has not bought more than 6%

03:59according to the marketing board.

04:01But whatever is left,

04:03whoever buys the crops of the farmers,

04:06whether the private players buy big or small,

04:10they should not buy the value less than the price

04:13that the government of Haryana has decided on.

04:16This is our demand.

04:17We are not able to understand that.

04:18How can we find a solution to this problem?

04:20Until the MSP's legal guarantee is not given,

04:24this is the only legal guarantee.

04:27Today, the government of Haryana,

04:29the ruling class people say that they have given the MSP.

04:32They have given the MSP, that is what we are saying.

04:34The MSP that they have given,

04:36the legal guarantee of that is that

04:39whatever the government buys,

04:41apart from that, the crops of the farmers,

04:43the legal guarantee of that is that

04:46whatever they buy, they should not buy less than that price.

04:49This is the legal guarantee.

04:51And the day the MSP's legal guarantee is given,

04:54on that day, half of the solution will be there.

04:56Only at that time, half of the solution will be there.

04:58When will the complete solution be there?

05:00When our report of Swaminathan will be implemented,

05:04then the farmer's solution will be there.

05:07Do you expect the government to listen to you?

05:09No, no matter how much the government listens to anyone,

05:15when the listener is strong and the voice is heard more,

05:18then definitely the work of listening will be done.

05:21In this movement, there was a movement before,

05:25the farmers' movement was one.

05:26Now, it doesn't seem that some movement is moving forward,

05:30some are behind, all are not able to co-operate.

05:32No, no, even before, look, for so many years,

05:36the farmers' union, all the farmers' unions working in the country,

05:41all of them used to raise their demands in their own way.

05:43And when the time came, all of them got together.

05:47And the same 40 old leaders of the union movement,

05:52even today, we are with the old leaders of the union farmer's movement.

05:56And whenever there will be a proper meeting,

05:59a proper date will be fixed, a proper system will be made,

06:03and after that, the union movement will not break anywhere.

06:07Along with the strength within the unity of the union movement,

06:11we will work to advance the demands of the farmers.

06:14What is the reason that the farmers from other parts of Haryana

06:17are joining the movement?

06:18The farmers of our Palwal are not able to join the movement,

06:21they are not able to protest with their mothers.

06:23No, it is not like that.

06:24Even before, you saw, people used to say like this.

06:26Last time also, there was a very long protest in Palwal.

06:30And now, there, through the farmers' panchayats,

06:34see, those who are connected there,

06:36now practically, we are not sitting on the streets of Haryana,

06:39in the entire state.

06:41Through the rallies, through the farmers,

06:43So, if there will be a proper meeting,

06:45will you join the movement?

06:46Yes, there, in Palle, Haryana, in the state,

06:49the farmers, their leaders,

06:51they have also held meetings at many places,

06:53they have said that we will join this movement.

06:56In fact, I am also saying this through you,

06:58the farmers of our district were also with us before,

07:01and will also be with us in the future,

07:02whenever the decision of the Sanyud Kisan Morcha will be announced,

07:07on that day, with full strength,

07:09whether it is Palwal or Haryana,

07:12everywhere, we will protest under the leadership of the Sanyud Kisan Morcha,

07:16and it will be with full strength.

07:17Thank you for talking to us.

07:20With us was the President of the Indian Farmers Union,

07:22Mr. Ratan Singh Sourav,

07:23who told us that the day the Sanyud Kisan Morcha will be decided,

07:27all the unions will come together,

07:30and with full strength, they will keep their demands.

07:34Because, let's talk,

07:36the way the Dalai Lama is a farmer,

07:37he is on hunger strike,

07:38he said that the 24 crops that the government talks about,

07:41if those crops are not grown in our Haryana,

07:44then what will be the benefit of the MSP of those crops?

07:48But the biggest thing is that,

07:49he also says that the Sanyud Kisan Morcha will be decided soon,

07:53so the farmers of Palwal, the farmers of Haryana,

07:55the farmers of Punjab,

07:55the farmers of the surrounding states,

07:56all will come together to keep their demands,

08:00and he says that the government will have to listen to them.
