DP - 2034

The DP -2034 has become a very contentious issue. The better way to plan is
1.To look at all existing roads and see how best they can be straightened and widened based on the evaluation of every stretch
2. Identify Roads as Main/Sub/street/lane etc based on their importance.
3.To redraw the Roads where identified and to call for a Step back that ensures at any future redevelopment land is released for road widening.
4. To convert where possible dual lanes into one way streets, to ensure uni directional flow of vehicles.
5. To define the threshold for providing services: viz: Marketplace, Police Station, Schools, Hospitals, Post Office, Open spaces, Parks etc.
 6. To ensure roads and footpaths are free of encroachments.
7. Buildings that have their ground floors commercial must have an independent secure entrance for residential areas.

Farmers Suicide - A Solution

Here I write how we can together resolve the Farmer Suicide issue.  

1. Let the Government declare what should be the earnings for a decent livelihood for the small Individual farmer.

2. Let the Central Ministry declare the stocks it will purchase from the States at declared rates.

3. Let the State in turn inform all Districts the Purchases from all small individual farmers at Central declared Prices. Payment made to Aadhar linked Card Account of the Farmer.

4. The Agricultural scientists will advice the farmer the best crops he should grow in the given farmland, and the number of cycles he can repeat. This with the rates calculated ensure he gets the total that sees him through the year, provided he delivers all advised crops.

5. This produce is handed to the Central Procurement. So no matter what, if the farmer tills his land as advised, he gets value for his produce, which sees him through the year.

6. It is only after all small farmers have handed their produce, that the medium scale, and the large scale farmers are considered for collection. After stocks needed to tide us through are stored in Godowns, the rest can be exported.

7. The rates given to the small farmer is different from that given to the bigger farmers.

This will ensure suicides never recur.
