Devinder Sharma: Who Will Feed India?

Devinder Sharma: Who Will Feed India?: "India is witnessing a thousand mutinies.

From Mangalore in Karnataka to Aligarh in Uttar Pradesh, from Singur in West Bengal to Mansa in Punjab, the rural countryside is literally on a boil. Large chunks of prime agricultural land are being diverted for non-agricultural purposes"
