Farmers in Bargarh district have launched an indefinite hunger strike demanding a permanent solution to the paddy token shortage. Around 514 farmers under the Dabha PACS have not received tokens, while others face delays. Despite discussions with the Sub-Collector, no resolution was reached, leading farmers to protest with paddy bags in the market. Meanwhile, farmers in Jharsuguda are also demanding that the government purchase paddy from Hirakud submerged areas at the fixed rates. https://odishasambad.in/farmers-on-hunger-strike-over-token-issue-in-baragada/ #creator program
