Surendra Singh Kushwaha of Gaushala Municipality-12 Laxminia is a commercial farmer. He spent his life in farming. Consider farming as employment.

His daily life is spent playing with clay. Surendra's family of 6 is on the same farm. In case of illness, treatment and children's education also depends on the same farm. His labor and sweat not only supported the family, but also those who did not grow grain. But Surendra never got respect because he was a farmer. Because the vegetables produced by him do not get the market. He delivers vegetables from Bardibas in Mahottari, Jaleshwar, Janakpur in Dhanusha to Lalbandi in Sarlahi. But sometimes even car rental is difficult to pay. The plight of many farmers is similar to that of Surendra. How do those farmers get the price of their produce?
Surendra cultivated tomatoes. turned green He was very happy. Irrigation was not provided at the time of flowering and fruiting. No fruit. Diseases and pest attacks increased. Not only tomatoes, but all the crops became the same. His dream of producing tomatoes and selling them to educate his children and support his household was shattered. Now how to pay for the children's education and home expenses, added to his worries. The government prepares the budget every year. The local government brings policies and programs every year. But such programs do not touch farmers like Surendra who grow grain. Real farmers do not have access to village lion palaces. How to reach the lion palace of the capital? Who will hear the voice of Surendras?

The government has allocated 57 billion 29 crores for agriculture in the financial year 2081/82. 1 billion less than the previous financial year. But no matter how much budget is allocated for agriculture, it is not enough for the real farmers. If we are to calculate the expenses of the municipalities, the agriculture budget has not even been spent. Then how will the budget allocated by the government for agriculture reach the farming of farmers like Surendra?
