Comment on YT: @SonnySundoo-ns3tt Sikh Diaspora looking after their loved ones going through destitute conditions majority of them on borrowed loans (money used for study/migration abroad) coz not much is earned in farming sectors , except for those who are well established, hence gov't is reluctant to help Punjab in anyway, in the form of foreign remittance check through RTI how much foreign remittance goes to Punjab alone. Why Vijay Malay / Choski Modi /Nirvar Modi still at large coz they took money (loan defaulters of PNB)? Coz the Money deposited in this Bank belongs to Punjab habitat so, let them suffer it's there life savings. Why no red alert was issued and asked Interplo which enables police in 196 member countries together to All sorts of crimes to extradite (to date still at large) criminals to their where there are declared absconded for crimes and is not just for gov't interest BUT Public interest. There is preconceived opinion form by false narratives by those are siding with CORPORATE & Gov't to malign the farmers... We need to go analyse and experience the situation from the ground..... It's gov't procurement (buy & store in whichever way or form) dept.(job) to analyse at local N international markets what's the demand of certain types of crops, then inform (3/6/12 months in advance) through state N local farmers unions to grow those crops to meet the demand locally 1st then sell/export the surplus. ..

@SonnySundoo-ns3tt  What right does the Corporate business have to get their borrowed loans from banks waived? Who gave waiver rights/which, tax or bank minister has such rights N why for Corporarates ONLY? How much each year since 2014 the govt has waived up to 2024 can get the info from RTI.
