NAGPUR VICHAR VARGA 19.10.2010 to 21
Jain Bhavan, Gandhi Bagh, Nagpur, wherein Swadeshi Vichar Varga of four central states was held, remained fully imbued in Swadeshi colours for three days from 19 to 21 August. Dr. Sharad Nimbalkar, Ex VC of P A University, Nagpur spoke on the topic of Save Farm, Save Country. He criticized the policy of urbanization at the cost of villages. The money spent for farmers in the form of 75,ooo crores of rupees has not reached the real sufferers, he lamented. When there is rise in the price of petrol, vehicles and other industrial products, there is no hue and cry, but a rise by a single rupees per kg on milk or foodgrains creates uproar in the whole of country, he went on.That is one , and there are other various reasons, that farmers are leaving farming, and some leaving the world also! He added in utter disgust. While answering on the issue of connecting the rivers, he said he was also a member of the apex committee and whole-heartedly supported that issue and affirmed that it should be taken up even now. If asked to name the number one problem of the Vidarbha, he claimed that he would like to name - the paucity of water.
While speaking on the topic of genetically modified seeds and products, Arati Pankhraj of Hamara Beej Abhiyan, detailed several examples of fraudulent practice adopted by companies like Monsento, which certainly is one of the most corrupt and hated company in America. The climax of the programmes of first day was certainly the Memorial Day Celebration of Dr. MG Bokare wherein Diwakar Bokare, younger brother of DR. MG Bokare was the inaugural speaker. A booklet written by him profiling the biographical sketch of DR.MG Bokare, was released. Similarly a rare book of Dr. Bokare “Taxless Economy” was also released on this occasion. Sh. Arun Ojha recalled Dr.Bokare as the supreme advocate of Arsha economic heritage, a renowned economist, sensitive activist and a visionary social worker.

The prime attraction of the programme remained two speeches of Sh. Arun Ojha, wherein he described the journey, concept and development of Swadeshi Jagaran Manch and WTO and its vicious designs. At a time when even so called developed countries are resorting to restrictions on outsourcing and other restrictive measures, the concept of Swadeshi has become acceptable throughout the world, he added. Sh. Ashwani Mahajan while detailing the Free Trade Agreements . added that 9 FTAs had been concluded and around twenty were in the pipeline.He lambasted that when WTO has ceasted to be the source of exploitation for the developed countries, they have resorted to FTAs.

He urged the need for further research on these lines. Sh.
