17,500 Farmers Killed Themselves every Year in India
- Thread starter bearice
- Start date
Oxford University conducted research on farmer suicide and the British Journal of Psychiatry carried an article on the subject. All the usual causatives mentioned such as stress, depression and ongoing psychical health problems. The UK media reported a spate of farm suicides in the 1990's but hey thats the media.Quote from bearice:
Does all countries have farmers suicides problems similar to India and USA?
Indian Banks are anti-social.
In 2010, Banks gave only 16% loans i.e 367,000 crores to rural India where 80% BC/SC/ST/Minority communities are living/working.
If this continues, we'll revoke the 1932 Round Table Conference Resolution to seek Homeland for Muslims/Christians/Anglo-Indians/Sikhs/SC/ST communities via a Bill in Indian Parliament.

Quote from bearlion:
Farmers are suffering in poverty since they are forced to produce cheap food to feed exploding population. That is horrible! So they actually have guns to their heads. Why should farmers suffer in poverty when they are the most important people for world economy?
I read somewhere that prostitutes earn $50,000 per night for their service.
Russians were honest farmers who armed themselves with weapons to defend themselves. Today nobody can defeat Russians and they are the most dangerous people in the world.
Farmers are hard working but dangerous people when angry. A farmers revolution worldwide will change world economy forever and I predict farmers revolution will start from India because India is a agricultural country with 60% population dependent of agriculture.
A person who can commit suicide can also kill other people.
I agree.
And no FARMER in the history of mankind has indulged in terrorism.
Hence one year compulsory farming conscription will solve many socioeconomic ills in the society and prevent terrorism.

Quote from toc:
A day labourer on construction site makes Rs 300 a day which is barely USD 6. And this rate is the tops for unskilled. A skilled labour can hope to make Rs. 500 to 700 a day i.e. $12-16/day and these include plumbers, electricians, welders etc.
It is actually $2 for day laborer and $4 for skilled laborer respectively.
You can actually hire MBAs for around 250$ per month. That's right- engineer+mba degree and 250$ per month. Post a job on firstnaukri.com if want to confirm
A wee bit far from the truth what about the Mau mau and the Veit cong. Thomas "Slab" Murphy hard working farmer and former Chief of Staff of the IRA seemed to have found time for terrorism.Quote from RewriteQuran:

True. But aren't they exceptional cases.
India is importing 75% petrol from OPEC nations.
