Farmers' suicide

It's a season of suicide of debt-ridden farmers in Kerala. When the Opposition Party accused the UDF for their inability to address the situation latter is groping in the dark to identify the real reason. In fact, it is not the fault of any party political in Kerala for suicide of farmers but the natural disaster that caused the tragedy. It is therefore the responsibility of all political parties to sit together and draw an appropriate solution to put an end to the seasonal disaster.

Farmers end life are enormous debtors of the sums in tune with many lakhs as agriculture loan and, when banks serve notice to repay, farmers end up living. Is it a fault of any political party? Can one blame banks using their legal procedure? What can the Government do is declare a moratorium on agricultural loans.
