BJP-led NDA government managed to form government in 1998 by subterfuges and underhand mechanism. It was an opportunistic alliance of parties who had nothing in common. There was no agenda for the country. So naturally businessman minded BJP party had no plan or offer for the farmers who still form a large proportion of our country. As a result plight of the poor farmers and agriculturalists turned from bad to worse. Nothing could be more shameful for the NDA Government, and tragic for us all, than the suicides committed by farmers during the tenure of the government. As per the documents of the Union Home Ministry-1999, poverty caused 2,952 suicides, unemployment caused 2,124 suicides and the NDA-neglected agriculture sector had 14,833 farmers taking their lives. In the five years preceding 2004 these sectors had seen an even greater decline; therefore, the figures for 2003-2004 were even worse than before. No farmer wishes to see BJP in power again.
