implement the following few suggestions, then the benefit of Independence of India can be spread to one 6 of the lowest tier of the society and we might consider it as having achieved true independence.
(1) Environment Friendly Modern Farming Methods: In this approach, provide good seeds, fertilizers, irrigation facilities, insecticides, and simple mechanizations to marginal and small farmers so that everybody is supported without exploitation of anybody.
(2) Financial Help to Small Farmers: Provide financial help to owners of 1.5 acres or less. Forming small co-operative banks can do this properly and honestly.
(3) Co-operative Farming: In this, four to five peasants do farming together. It is viable and can be more profitable.
(4) Marketing Co-operatives: If these are properly organized, then the exploitation incidental from I individual selling can be avoided.
(5) Education: Farmer should get the basic education, so that his exploitation can be prevented.
The basic culture of our country is spirituality and agriculture (Rishi and Krishi - Hit and ft). It is okay to accept industrialization, but it should be properly limited. It is only when we will be able to accomplish this that truly peaceful, rich and tension-free life can be lived and Godly kingdom, as envisioned by GandhijiVinobaji will really prevail.
