What are the Farm Bills and how will they affect farmers? | NL Cheatsheet
Last week, two #FarmBills which bring in sweeping reforms in India's agriculture sector were bulldozed through #Parliament. This happened while farmers and Opposition parties were holding widespread protests saying the reforms will be a death knell for India's agriculture sector.
You're probably wondering: Are these Farm Bills good or bad? Are the reforms to the agriculture sector proposed by the #ModiGovernment beneficial to farmers, or are they harmful?
Resident Parliament nerd Meghnad S explains what the reforms are all about, and how they will affect farmers.
