The forces opposing truth are moving forward rapidly. After being elected for the second time as the President of the United States, Donald Trump has become very aggressive. He has been threatening one country after another. He is increasing tariffs on goods coming from outside his country. He is playing dirty politics to remove tariffs to sell his goods abroad. The Modi government of the country has sacrificed the interests of the country's farmers by signing a trade agreement with America and allowing its agricultural products to come under zero percent tariff.
The BV G Ram G Act 2025 has been passed by abolishing the MNREGA. The friend further said that we will have to work with full force to reach out to the people in local struggles for our demands, restoration of MNREGA, opening of cheap village depots, waiver of loans of Dalits and poor people, grant of Rs. 5 lakh for 10 marla plots for houses, acquisition of land, keeping a large part of the budget on cheap education and health facilities, etc. The time demands it from us.
