According to Kashmir Media Service, farmers espcially in Punjab and Haryana states are staging protests, leading to the blocking of railways and roads, as the Modi government is indifferent to their demands. The crisis, deepened by rising input costs, lack of storage facilities and unfair prices, has pushed many farmers to the brink of starvation.<\/p>\n
