If we have irrigation we can grow 3 crops but Govt only keen to sell our land

Kunjbihari Rathor from Anuppur district in MP says they have many rivers in the district and if Govt helps with irrigation they can grow 3 crops a year. But instead Govt is helping companies who are taking away farmer’s land at cheap rates. He says in some places the market rate of land is in many lakhs but companies are not paying even a fraction of those rates. They are also not getting seed and fertilizer from Govt societes, he alleges. Rathorji is at 7354402191
