Centre to roll out new law to protect farmers from fake seeds

Digital Desk | New Delhi, Sep 9 (IANS) The Centre is preparing to introduce a new Seed Act aimed at protecting the countrys farmers from the losses caused by fake and substandard seeds by incorporating more stringent punishment for culprits indulging in malpractices, according to an official statement issued on Wednesday. The proposed Seed Act is expected to provide for more stringent legal action against companies and traders involved in the sale of fake, adulterated or substandard seeds, including heavy penalties and imprisonment, it said. Before finalising the proposed legislation, Agriculture Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan will hold a high-level consultation with senior leaders of major farmer organisations from across the country on Thursday at Krishi Bhawan in the national capital. The consultation, convened by the minister, is aimed at incorporating farmers ground-level suggestions and concerns directly into the draft seed legislation. The government intends to build a robust and effective regulatory framework to curb the activities of seed mafias and protect farmers from fraudulent and poor-quality seeds, the statement said. Poor-quality seeds can wipe out months of a farmers hard-earned income and years of effort and labour. The governments stated position is that the new law must ensure the highest standards of seed quality and a transparent, end-to-end traceability system, while also safeguarding farmers rights over traditional seeds. The consultation on Thursday will bring farmer representatives together from across the country. Senior leadership of the Bharatiya Kisan Sangh, various factions of the Bharatiya Kisan Union (BKU), the All India Kisan Coordination Committee (AIKCC), the Kisan Mahapanchayat, the Bharatiya Krishak Samaj, the Gaon Kisan Unnayan, and the Society for Independent Farmers Association (SIFA) will participate in the meeting. Ground-level farmer representatives from several states will also put forward their views before the Union Agriculture Minister. These include representatives of the Karnataka Raitha Sangha, the Telangana Raitha Sangha, Maharashtras Shetkari Organisation, Gujarats Khedut Samaj, the National Kisan Progressive Association from Rajasthan and Bihar, Tamil Nadus Vivasayigal Sangam, Jharkhands Pragatisheel Krishi Manch, and a farmers organisation from Kottayam in Kerala, among others. The consultation, being held ahead of the upcoming Parliament session, is expected to mark a significant step towards creating a stronger regulatory framework and protecting Indian agriculture from the persistent threat of fake and substandard seeds, the statement added.

ED invokes PMLA in attack on officials at Vijayan residence, piles pressure on CPI(M)

Digital Desk | Thiruvananthapuram, Sep 9 (IANS) The Enforcement Directorate (ED) has widened its probe into the alleged attack on its officials during a search operation at the private residence of Kerala Leader of Opposition Pinarayi Vijayan by registering a case under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA), bringing the CPI(M) and its leaders under fresh scrutiny. The central agency suspects that the attack may have involved a financial trail and plans to include all those named in the attempt-to-murder case registered by the Kerala Police and the Crime Branch in its PMLA investigation. According to sources, the ED is examining whether individuals were mobilised for the attack using funds allegedly received from persons or companies under investigation. It will also probe whether any financial assistance was provided to the accused and whether such transactions constitute proceeds of crime under the anti-money laundering law. The agency is further expected to investigate the alleged conspiracy behind the incident, including the role of political leaders who were present at the spot. Invoking the PMLA in a case linked to an alleged attack on officials is considered an unusual step and is likely to significantly widen the scope of the investigation. The move comes as the police prepare to file the first charge sheet in the case. The investigation team led by Cantonment ACP Jayachandran has named 28 CPI(M), DYFI and SFI functionaries as accused. However, reports suggest that the initial charge sheet does not extensively address the alleged political conspiracy behind the incident. The incident dates back to the last week of May, when an ED team arrived at Vijayan's residence as part of its probe into the monthly-payment case involving his daughter, T. Veena. The officials were allegedly attacked and their vehicle damaged after party activists gathered outside the residence to obstruct the search operation. The latest development also comes amid the ED's earlier demand for action under the Prevention of Corruption Act against Vijayan, Veena and former minister Mohammed Riyas in connection with the monthly-payment case. The agency had alleged that payments worth several crores were made by CMRL. With the ED pursuing both the monthly-payment allegations and the alleged attack on its officials, the CPI(M) is now facing scrutiny on two parallel fronts.

CPI(M) to fight ED move against Pinarayi Vijayan legally, politically

Digital Desk | Thiruvananthapuram, Sep 8 (IANS) The CPI(M) in Kerala is gearing up to fight, both legally and politically, the Enforcement Directorates move to pave the way for a corruption case against former two-time Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan. State party secretary M.V.Govindan on Tuesday said the party will defend Vijayan legally and politically. The EDs latest action threatens to cast a shadow over the partys extended state committee meeting being held at Kozhikode over three days starting on Saturday to discuss organisational shortcomings and corrective measures. The ED has submitted a report to the Director General of Police under Section 66(2) of the Prevention of Money Laundering Act, seeking action under the Prevention of Corruption Act. The report contains details of the evidence allegedly unearthed during the agencys investigation into the monthly payment case. The ED has also sought action against his son-in-law, P.A.Mohammed Riyas, a party MLA, and his wife, Veena T. The EDs move could have wider implications for the case. Registration of an FIR under the Prevention of Corruption Act would enable the agency to proceed with further action in the monthly payment case. The ED has alleged that Exalogic Solutions received Rs 2.78 crore from Cochin Minerals and Rutile Ltd (CMRL) without providing any services in return. The agency has taken the view that the transaction falls within the ambit of money laundering. The immediate question is how the state government will respond to the EDs recommendation. The police will have to take a position on the demand to register an FIR, potentially putting the government in a politically sensitive situation. State Home Minister Ramesh Chennithala said the State Police Chief would submit his views to the Home Secretary, following which the matter would come before him and be discussed with the Chief Minister before a decision is taken. The development has already triggered a political attack from Revolutionary Socialist Party MP N.K. Premachandran. He said the EDs move was based on clear evidence and that what had emerged so far was only the tip of the iceberg. This is a new experience in left-wing politics. The CPI(M) must take a stand on the issue and make its position clear. What has emerged against a senior leader is a serious corruption allegation, Premachandran said. He alleged that all of Vijayans arguments had collapsed and Vijayan was not responding to the allegations raised by the ED. The CPI(M) cannot escape responsibility. More cases will emerge, Premachandran said. For the CPI(M), the timing is particularly uncomfortable, with the extended state committee meeting examining the reasons for the partys electoral setback and discussing measures for course correction. The ED action against its top leader is now set to add a major political dimension to those deliberations.
