2 JUN 2017 2 Day FARMERS STRIKE
Day 2 of farmers’ strike in Maharashtra: Consumers suffer, traders make profits
Mumbai city news: Chief minister Devendra Fadnavis said the state can afford to waive the loans of 31 lakh farmers
MUMBAI Updated: Jun 02, 2017 11:34 IST
The farmers’ strike in Maharashtra entered the second day on Friday, with reports of farmers blocking trucks carrying milk and vegetables.
If the strike continues, urban centres like Mumbai, Thane, Pune may face shortage ofvegetables, milk and fruits.
The farmers’ main demand is loan waiver. Chief minister Devendra Fadnavis said the state can afford to waive the loans of 31 lakh farmers, who were edged out of the institutional credit system as they didn’t repay.
As Maharashtra has 1.34 crore farmers, the decision has not gone down well with others.
Fadnavis said , even in Uttar Pradesh, where the loans have been waived, only 70 lakh of the 2.5 crore farmers are getting the benefit.
During 2016-17, banks had disbursed farm loan worth Rs 40,000 crore to the state’s 13.7 million farmers. The loan disbursement has been 80% of the overall agriculture credit target which was set at Rs 51,000 crore for the fiscal.

While farmers want a loan waiver, the state government has sought time for deliberation. The strike is the farmers’ way of creating shortage of milk and vegetable supplies to putting pressure on the government to give in to their demands.
Meanwhile, traders made a killing by selling farm products at higher rates. Vegetables and fruits prices in Pune, Nashik and other cities soared by 40 %, as the supply came down by half.
Traders in Pune market yard said only 125 vehicles, including trucks, tempo and jeep reached the market on Friday morning. Usually, 1,230 vehicles come to the market daily.
“The shortage in supply of vegetables and fruits has led to a rise in prices. If the supply remains thin, prices will go up further,” said Vilas Bhujbal, wholesale trader of vegetable and fruits.
The chief minister has accused the NCP and Congress of instigating violence through the strike.

Farmers Strike Day 2 Live: भाजीपाल्याचे दर वाढले, दुधासाठी अनेकठिकाणी रांगा
राज्यातील बहुतांश भागातील कृषी सेवा विस्कळीत झाली.
पुणे | Updated: June 2, 2017 3:10 PM
जमावाने वाहनांमधील कृषिमाल रस्त्यावर फेकून अशी नासधूस केली.
कर्जमाफी आणि शेतीमालाला हमीभाव या दोन प्रमुख मागण्यांसह अन्य मागण्यांबद्दल राज्यतील शेतकऱ्यांनी गुरुवारी बेमुदत संपाचे हत्यार उपसले. या संपाच्या पहिल्याच दिवशी राज्यातील बहुतांश भागातील कृषी मालाचे खरेदी-विक्रीचे व्यवहार, वाहतूक ठप्प झाली. अनेक भागांत शेतीमाल, दूध घेऊन जाणारी वाहने अडवण्यात आली. काही ठिकाणी या वाहनांवर दगडफेक, आग लावण्याच्याही घटना घडल्या. नाशिक जिल्हय़ातील पिंपळगाव जलाल टोल नाका, नगर जिल्हय़ातील कोपरगावमध्ये या आंदोलनाला हिंसक वळण लागून दगडफेक, वाहनांची जाळपोळ आणि लूटमारीच्या मोठय़ा घटना घडल्या. हिंसक जमावाला पांगवण्यासाठी पिंपळगावमध्ये हवेत गोळीबार, तर कोपरगावमध्ये लाठीमार करण्यात आला. दरम्यान, संपामुळे मुंबई, पुण्यासह सर्व शहरांमधील शेतमालासह दुधाची आवक घटल्यामुळे महागाई भडकण्याची भीती व्यक्त करण्यात येत आहे.
शेतकऱ्यांच्या संपाच्या पहिल्याच दिवशी राज्यातील बहुतांश भागातील कृषी सेवाही विस्कळीत झाली. राज्यातील अनेक बाजारपेठांमध्ये शेतमालाची आवक पूर्णपणे थंडावली होती. बाजार समित्यांमधील लिलाव गुरुवारी बंद होते. शेतमाल आणि दुधाची वाहतूक करणारी वाहने महामार्गावरच अनेक ठिकाणी अडवण्यात आल्याने शहरात जाणारा भाजीपाला आणि दूध रोखून धरण्यात आले. या संपास राज्याच्या सर्व भागांत मोठा प्रतिसाद मिळाला असला तरी उत्तर महाराष्ट्रातील नाशिक, जळगाव, नगर जिल्हय़ात या आंदोलनाचा जोर मोठा होता.
दरम्यान, मुख्यमंत्री देवेंद्र फडणवीस यांच्या नेतृत्वाखालील सरकारच्या कारकीर्दीत प्रथमच मोठय़ा प्रमाणावर शेतकऱ्यांचा उद्रेक रस्त्यावर आल्याने भाजपमध्ये चिंतेचे वातावरण असून सरकारचे धाबे दणाणले आहे. संप हा शेतकऱ्यांच्या हिताविरोधात असून ‘संघर्ष’ यात्रांना प्रतिसाद न मिळाल्याने हिंसा घडवून तो चिघळविण्याचा विरोधकांचा राजकीय डाव असल्याचा स्पष्ट आरोप फडणवीस यांनी केला.

Hazare backs Maharashtra farmers' strike
IANS | Updated: Jun 2, 2017, 02.26 PM IST
RALEGAN-SIDDHI: Social activist Anna Hazare extended his support to the indefinite strike of farmers which entered the second day on Friday.
But concerned over the violence witnessed on the first day, he urged farmers to carry out their agitation peacefully without causing damage to public or private properties.
"I support the farmers' cause, but I appeal to them to carry out the agitation peacefully. I am prepared to intervene on their behalf with the government and resolve the issue," Hazare said in a statement.
Over half a million farmers across Maharashtra, barring the coastal Konkan, have resorted to an unprecedented strike, which was marred by several violent incidents on Thursday.
Major cities like Mumbai, Thane, Navi Mumbai, Pune, Nashik, Nagpur and others have started feeling the pinch of the strike with shortages looming ahead coupled with spiraling prices of essentials like milk, fresh fruits, vegetables and even foodgrains.
The farmers are demanding a complete waiver of farm loans, free electricity, appropriate remunerative prices for their produce, grants for irrigation, pension for farmers who are 60 years and above, and implementation of the MS Swaminathan Committee recommendations.
They continued to hold agitations, protest marches and processions at various government and APMC offices to press for their demands even as Maharashtra chief minister Devendra Fadnavis said talks with the farmers leaders will continue to hammer out a solution.
On Thursday, Fadnavis accused the Congress-Nationalist Congress Party combine of allegedly inciting the farmers.
The Shiv Sena asked the Bharatiya Janata Party to heed the farmers' demands and take urgent steps. Fadnavis said the government was "aware of its responsibility" and expected the same from its ally, the Sena.
As the strike progressed into the second day on Friday, movement of agricultural goods has been affected. Most APMC markets wore a desolate look.
