Defence Minister Rajnath Singh today said that India is committed to resolve the current border issue with China through a fair and peaceful manner and at the same time the country is also prepared to deal with all contingencies. He said, China is trying to change the status quo at the Line of Actual Control which is unacceptable to India at any condition. The Defence Minister was making a statement in the Rajya Sabha on the development on border in Ladakh region.
“एक और किसी को भी हमारी सीमा की सुरक्षा के प्रति हमारे दृढ़ निश्चय यानी डिटरमिनेशन के बारे में संदेह नहीं होना चाहिए। वहीं भारत यह भी मानता है कि पड़ोसियों के साथ शांतिपूर्ण संबंधों के लिए आपसी सम्मान और संवेदनशीलता भी यह रखना आवश्यक है।“
Mr. Singh said, the current situation is very different both in terms of scale of troops involved and the number of friction points. He said, the conduct of Indian forces throughout the standoff shows that while they maintained patience in face of provocative actions, they also equally displayed valour when required to protect territorial integrity of the country.
“चीन द्वारा एक बहुत ही वायलेंट के हिसाब की स्थिति 15 जून को गलवान में क्रिएट की है। हमारे बहादुर सिपाहियों ने, बहादुर जवानों ने अपनी जान का बलिदान दिया और साथ ही चीनी पक्ष को भी भारी क्षति पहुंचाई है और अपनी सीमा की सुरक्षा में कामयाब भी रहे है। पूरी के दौरान हमारे बहादुर जवानों ने, जहां सयंम की जरूरत थी, वहां सयंम रखा और जहां शौर्य की जरूरत थी वहां शौर्य का भी प्रदर्शन किया। मैं सदन से यह अनुरोध करता हूं कि हमारे सैनिकों की वीरता एवं बहादुरी की भूरी–भूरी प्रशंसा की जानी चाहिए। हमारे बहादुर जवान अत्यंत मुश्किल परिस्थितियों में अपने अथक प्रयास से समस्त देशवासियों को सुरक्षित रखने के अपने दायित्व का निर्वहन कर रहे है।“
The Defence Minister added that Chinese actions reflect a disregard to various bilateral agreements and amassing of the troops by China goes against the 1993 and 1996 agreements.
“चीन की कार्रवाई से हमारे विभिन्न द्विपक्षीय समझौतों के प्रति उसका डिसरिगार्ड दिखता है। चीन द्वारा भारी मात्रा में तैनाती किया जाना 1993 और 1996 के समझौतों का उल्लंघन है। सम्मान करना और उसका कड़ाई से पालन किया जाना है।सीमा क्षेत्रों में शांति और सद्भावना का ये आधार है और 1993 और 1996 के समझौतों मे स्पष्ट रूप से स्वीकार भी किया गया है जबकि हमारी आर्म फोर्सेस का पूरी तरह से पालन करते हुए चाइनीज साइड की और से ऐसा नहीं हुआ है।“
Mr Singh said, China, in the last many decades undertook significant infrastructure construction activity to enhance their deployment capabilities in the border areas.
The Minister added that Indian government has doubled the budget for border infrastructure development. He said, China continues to be in illegal occupation of around 38,000 square kilometres in Ladakh and Pakistan illegally ceded 5,180 square kilometres of Indian territory in Pakistan-occupied Kashmir to China. Mr. Singh said, border issues are a complex matter and both India and China have accepted that peace is essential for bilateral ties.
Later, leaders cutting across party lines spoke in one voice against the Chinese aggression and reiterated their commitment to support the government and armed forces. Leader of Opposition, Gulam Nabi Azad said, Congress is committed to protect the unity and integrity of the country. P. Wilson of DMK and Ravi Prakash Verma of Samajawadi Party also extended their support to the government.

NOW REVIEW OF PROCEEDINGS IN LOK SABHA.
Lok Sabha began a discussion on the Farmers’ Produce Trade and Commerce (Promotion and Facilitation) Bill and ‘The Farmers (Empowerment and Protection) Agreement on Price Assurance and Farm Services Bill. The proposed laws allow intra-state and inter-state trade of farmers’ produce beyond the physical premises of Agricultural Produce Market Committee (APMC).
Agriculture Minister Narendra Singh Tomar said they will give freedom to farmers in their trade and unshackle them from mandis. He asserted that the bills do not encroach on states’ rights over Agricultural Produce Market Committee and allow farmers to engage in trade outside these markets.
The proposed laws are aimed at replacing ordinances promulgated by the government. The Minister said the two bills will revolutionise farm sector by attracting private investment and ensuring fair prices for farm produce. He said these legislations are aimed at making farming profitable. He also asserted that the laws would not make any impact on the Minimum Support Price (MSP) and the existing mechanism which will continue.
These bills will ensure that famers get better prices for their produce and they are not subject to the regulations of mandis, he said. The legislations will increase competition and promote private investment which will help in the development of farm infrastructure and generate employment.
The Minister said because of these two reform bills, famers will be able to connect directly with big business, exporters and will be able to make farming profitable.
Initiating the discussion on the bills, Ravneet Singh of the Congress demanded withdrawal of the bills. He said that Punjab collects about 3,630 crore rupees from mandis, which are used for welfare activities for farmers and creation of rural infrastructure like roads, and the revenue will be harmed by new laws. He said that as agriculture is in the concurrent list and accused the Centre of interfering in the states’ rights. He wondered how small farmers would be able to resolve disputes with big corporates and alleged that these laws will finish off farmers.
Opposing the bills, N K Premchandran of the RSP demanded that the bills should be sent to the standing committee. He said that there is no justification for promulgation of these ordinances. He alleged that the ordinances were passed to bulldoze the farmer’s interests while taking advantage of the COVID-19 pandemic.
All the ordinances are aimed at facilitating the interests of corporates, he said. Virendra Singh Mast of the BJP said that the bills will strengthen farmers, and help India to become Aatma Nirbhar. He said the new laws will prove revolutionary for farmers by allowing them to sell their produce outside their state, which they are currently not allowed to do. Agriculture reforms are a part of the BJP’s agenda and the party’s government is only implementing its manifesto, he said.
K Shamugasundaram of DMK and Kalyan Banerjee of the Trinamool Congress opposed the bills and accused the government of undermining the powers of states. The proposed laws will especially harm the small and marginal farmers, he said. Ritesh Pandey of the BSP echoed the similar view.
T Rangaiah of the YSRCP supported the bills, saying they will help farmers engage in barrier-free trade of their produce. Farmers currently face a lot of restrictions but will now be allowed to sell outside notified areas, he added. Arvind Sawant of the Shiv Sena welcomed the laws but sought more clarity from the government on some issues.
The discussion was continuing till reports came in last.
Earlier, Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla extended birthday greetings to Prime Minister Narendra Modi on behalf of the House and wished that he remains dedicated to the service of the nation. Mr. Modi turned 70 today.
