Support The Interview with Karan Thapar - https://fij.mojo.page/support-the-int...
In a strong-hitting interview where he frequently counters and rebuts many of the points made earlier (Friday 16th) by the agriculture economist Ashok Gulati, a well-known and widely respected professor of Economics at Jawaharlal Nehru University, Himanshu, has emphatically said that the minimum support price is “a subsidy to consumers and not to farmers”. Prof. Himanshu has also argued that when farmers ask for MSP to be made legally binding what they are, in fact, saying is that the government must fulfill its five decade commitment to properly implement and enforce the MSP regime it has claimed to be committed to. In fact, he says, MSP has applied to wheat and rice but rarely, infrequently and usually not properly to all the remaining 21 crops to which it’s supposed to apply. Legal-binding will ensure it does.
