Farmers have started a movement centered on Kathmandu since Sunday, saying that the government has cut the subsidy amount for sugarcane farmers in the budget. Farmers from all over the country have come to Kathmandu for the protest. On the first day of the movement, they demonstrated at Maitighar.
यसअघि जिल्लामा प्रदर्शन, चिनी मिल अगाडि धर्ना, कृषिमन्त्री र राजनीतिक दलका नेतृत्वसँग छलफल गरेका किसानले माग पूरा नभएको भन्दै राजधानी केन्द्रित आन्दोलन गर्न बाध्य भएको किसानहरुले बताएका छन् । बर्सेनि घट्दै गएको उखु खेतीमा सरकारले प्रोत्साहन गर्नुपर्नेमा निराशा बनाउने काम गरेको किसानको गुनासो छ ।
उद्योगीले ५ सय ८५ रुपैयाँ प्रतिक्विन्टल र सरकारले ७० रुपैयाँ अनुदान गरेर प्रतिक्विन्टल ६ सय ५५ रुपैयाँ मूल्य तोकेका थिए । उखु काटेर उद्योगलाई बिक्री गरेर अनुदानको पर्खाइमा रहेको समयमा सरकारले भने अनुदान रकम कटौती गरेपछि किसान आन्दोलित भएका हुन् । किसानले सरकारले दिने अनुदान रकम अविलम्ब प्रदान गर्नुपर्ने माग उठाएका छन् ।
