My Article - farmer suicides

Special Reports 
 Soudamini’s ultimate price for debt

On 26 August 2010, for the first time in Orissa, a 
woman farmer committed suicide. The reason was
 the fear of not being able to pay back the loans that 
she had taken for tilling her land, as her crop had failed. 
Ranjan K Panda brings to fore the issues underlying this 
case; issues that hold true not only for one case or state, but, perhaps, for the entire nation.
