Wider waiver (letter)
It is heartening to hear that the Government plans to extend the relief in the form of loan waiver to all the farmers in the country. But one may ask: Why farmers only? Why not other sections of society, some of whom are suffering as much or even more. If the Government does not look into their interests as well, it may win the favour of only one section of society. For example, consider the plight of parents who have taken educational loans for higher studies of their children.
