Farmers’ Displacement Battles – Legal and Otherwise
A Talk by Rachana Reddy
We hear stories of agrarian crisis and farmers’ suicides almost every day. On one hand, farmers are fighting livelihood issues due to anti-farmers policies adopted by the government, on the other hand, farmers’ lands are illegally acquired by MNCs and government. The farmers are uprooted from their agricultural land and displaced. The recent attack on the farmers in Delhi on 2nd October tells a sorry state of affairs and the treatment meted out to them. The Dilli Chalo call is a protest march against the anti farmers’ policies and to tell the government that farmers are in turmoil and seek justice.
In this talk Rachana Reddy will focus on the issues of farmers’ displacement battles and what are the legal avenues available to them to fight out these perennial battles. Can the farmers challenge the government legally or otherwise on this? Come and listen to Rachana Reddy this Saturday, 3rd November 2018 at 7.00pm at Lamakaan.
ALL ARE WELCOME!!!
