In India, builders and real estate establishments are buying agricultural lands and farmers are selling to realise money at once. By this, rate of all commodities including vegetables and fruits have gone up by 100% within one year. Our government is keeping mum and eyes shut. What will be the situation of food after another 5 years, if the same trend continues where agricultural lands become eroded?
