Rexx Bailey- WHER THE HELL IS THE REST OF IT !??...
S.K. Mani- Land acquisition Ordinance is the corporate hijack of agriculture 40 percent of India do not own land and but depend on it. Marginal capital required To generate one job by agriculture is less than 10 percent of what Industry requires. but they will earn more than that every year. What happened to Nano and the loans given to Tata's dream project , If the money given to Corporates was used to recharge ground water it would produce Trillions of dollars and save GWH Electricity
Praveen Kulkarni- 5:11Is that P Sainath in the audience (one wearing black jacket)
mamta sharma- No wonder, he is so brilliant. He is the Rural Affairs Editor in The Hindu. Speaks too fluent on burning issues. Corporate Hijaking have been started and this Hijaking would turn out in migration of people shifting to other cities, leaving their land and place in coming time. That will surely create lot of issues.
Simranjit Arora- Brilliant man :)

Arvind Iyer- *Food is a source of wealth. Food production is a source of misery.* - Rabindranath Tagore, quoted by P SainathThis is a brief history of the forced cultivation of hunger in the subcontinent, in the name of wealth-creation, through the anguished voices of awakened Indian thinkers, playwrights and journalists.*circa 1859* *Indigo Revolt*Michael Madhusudan Dutt, English translator of Dinabandhu Mitra's Bengali play *Neel Darpan*, writes in his translator's preface that the play *pleads the cause of those who are the feeble*; *it describes a respectable ryot*, *a peasant proprietor*, *happy with his family in the enjoyment of his land till the Indigo System compelled him to take advances*, *to neglect his own land, to cultivate crops which beggared him*, *reducing him to the condition of a serf and a vagabond* ; *the effect of this on his home, children, and relatives are pointed out in language, plain but true ; it shows how arbitrary power debases the lord as well as the peasant.*The English translation of the play can be read here:http://bit.ly/1n0jVeYA televised adaptation of the role of journalists like Harish Chandra Mukherjee of *Hindu Patriot* in complementing the consciousness-raising of the playwrights, featured as an episode in the teleseries Bharat Ek Khoj: http://bit.ly/1tjRFV8*circa 1917* *Champaran Satyagraha*A prolific magazine editor in early 20th century India, reflecting on the Champaran Satyagraha some years later, wrote:*I must confess that I did not then know even the name, much less the geographical position, of Champaran, and I had hardly any notion of indigo plantations. I had seen packets of indigo, but little dreamed that it was grown and manufactured in Champaran at great hardship to thousands of agriculturists.*The author would go on to make history by overcoming not only the ignorance he confesses above, but by supplying his compatriots unprecedented methods to resist injustice. Chapters XII to XV in Part V of *The Story of My Experiments With Truth* provide the author's first-hand account of another Indigo Revolt in Bihar, over half a century after the first one in Bengal.http://wikilivres.ca/wiki/An_Autobiography_or_The_Story_of_my_Experiments_with_TruthA film adaptation of the culmination of the Satyagraha can be viewed here: http://bit.ly/1jLA3kE*circa 2014* *Largely unreported*Nearly a century after Champaran, vanilla is the new indigo and not a paddy field can be spotted in Wayanad, belying its name meaning 'paddy-country', laments rural-reporter P Sainath.P Sainath: Corporate Hijack of Indian Agriculture - BV Kakkilaya Inspired Oration 2013#India #AgrarianCrisis #BengalRenaissance #Satyagraha #ExtractiveCapitalism #HistoryRepeats

Sameer Khot- This guy keeps me in touch with reality. Most of the world is under the same threat. I am witness to the same corporate take over in Australia, today most farmers are lost to government and corporate plans of import and export.
T Ramadoss- One of the most insightful debates. Cannot believe the media doesn't heed much into these issues as high priority. Hope our public bans cinema / criket to concentrate on what is important.
