Independent Villages for Independent Bharat

Inflation is surging ahead. Price of every commodity is in competition to surpass each other. It benefits only few who are in control of flow of wealth. Who suffers the most? The upper most class does not bother much. They have always bought the same commodity at exorbitant price from high end store. The upper middle class feels the pinch. They know how to bridge the gap. The middle class adjusts to the changing environment. On these groups of people, industrial giants rest for their profit. So policies are made keeping them in view and they are always in the limelight of the news paper or the screen. What gets unnoticed in the pain of the lowest class. They are on the fringe of the life-line. They cannot adjust themselves because there is no space to adjust. With a small push of price rise they are thrown away from the life-line. What can be done for them? Nobody can do anything for them. If a scientist gives advice, don't care. His model will have multiple flaws, which he himself may not be aware. For him, it will be another experiment and implication will be just another data for him. They are heads without heart. If administrator tells something, don’t take seriously because even he is not serious about them. There must be some pressure on him to act. They never act on their own. They are worse. You can compare them to hands without head forget heart. And if a politician is saying something better then just move away from the place. It will create more problem than solving.
So what can be done?
Nobody will help if the people suffering don’t want to help themselves. Stop dependency. Be independent. It may be difficult and strenuous path. But will have long lasting effect. At least villages can try out this model for food security and gradually expand to other field too. Every village must have minimum food requirement met by its own field. Understanding that what the mother earth provides is the best for the place is important. Family should have enough to eat. There may be some family always who will not be able to make it. But then it will be responsibility of village to take care of such family. The aim is that no villager should go empty stomach to sleep (unless it is their spiritual practice). After this the surplus should be sent to city. Even the milk production should have similar pattern. No child should be malnourished. Send extra milk to city. Of course cloth security will be little difficult as they are not uniformly available. But the people who can generate these can be integrated. If they happen to stay in a group then the group can be amalgamated with the cluster of the villages. They will be responsible for the clothing of the cluster and their food security will be taken care by the food producing group.
Looks like barter system?
No problem.
What s needed is solving problem which is haunting while maintaining the universal Dharma.
Such independent villages will be the back bone of the strong and independent Bharat. Then they will never be feeling that they are the fringe of the life line. They will never be threatened by the price rise. Price rice will be important for people who want to trade in money.
