23rd of December annually
is called kisan diwas or farmer's day in India.
across the country to commemorate the birth anniversary of the former Prime Minister Chaudhary Charan Singh.
On this day various events, seminars, functions, and competitions are organised on agriculture
and its importance to educate
and provide knowledge to the people.
And to give relief to the Indian farmers,
Have you ever visited Indian villages?
That's a very nice experience to spend some time with the best minds of the sub continent.
You will see smiles and carefree look and a pride of different kind there.
Indian soul resides in the villages.
And the cultures, customs and rites
Are still traditional there.
People here celebrate post harvest
Festivals with joy and new dishes.
Every region of India has different cultures
In the area of agriculture practices and approaches in terms of traditions.
Indian farmers can be found in local attires
Looking simple and full of pride in their talk and manners.
The farmers have now started following new technology and practices in production.
The whole family of the farmers can be seen engaged in the fields in various regions.
Indian still is far behind many countries in terms of grains and vegetables production per hectare.
But in recent decades
India has done much better compared to pre independence years.
The fragrance of soil in rainy days in indian villages and fields is really charming and intoxicating.
The cool breeze in the morning
The dance of the peacocks
The chirpy birds flying here and there
Various wild animals infiltrating the farmers' field the natural views there.
Who knows
Bollywood
Indian film industry has produced many films based on the Indian farmers.
Mother India
The world famous movie shows the true picture of the Indian farmers plight to some extent.
The current regime is doing better to improve the Indian farmers' economic and social conditions amidst market forces and international scenario.
No matter what happens
Indian farmers are full of self respect and hardworking spirit.
They don't pursue exploitative practices.
They still have concern for the public living in the country.
Farmers are really worthy of great respect.
Government of India has enacted some long awaited laws to improve the farmers' lives.
It may be another thing that some sections of the farmers are not happy with recently passed agricultural laws.
But with time, all will be fine.
By the way, India has been a country of the villages where majority of people are still engaged in the agricultural practices.
More than 55% of India's population is dependent primarily on the agriculture sector and other other allied services.
North India enjoy the status of the huge producer of many grain types.
Haryana, Punjab and West Utter Pradesh gave tremendous results in the green revolution.
And the country became self sufficient in food production and consumption.
I have seen the rural lives of the farmer's lives there.
The farmers are so simple living and hardworking people that no one need to imagine about last era agriculture and agriculturists.
Wheat, rice and other grains and vegetables make the whole basket of farmer's products.
Almost all states of India are dependent on various ways on the agriculture there.
India has launched many fruitful and innovative schemes for the Indian farmers to uplift the laters" lives.
And due to technical advancement and other interventions
India is on the path of becoming a paramount power in agribusiness depending on the government support.
And in my opinion, the children and students must be given opportunities to visit the nearby indian villages to sensitise them for learning simple, proud life practices and better understanding of the conditions faced by the Indian farmers.
