Nagpur: With five cotton growers committing suicide on Thursday, a total of 507 farmers have killed themselves during 2011 alone in Vidarbha region of Maharashtra, an NGO fighting for farmers' rights said on Friday.

The dead were identified as Mohan Raut from Ghazipur in Yavatmal district, Raju Tembhare from Sakur in Yavatmal district, Sharavan Chichghate from Bhindi in Wardha district, Vijay Gomase from Akoli in Wardha district and Laxman Pathode from Dongargaon in Chandrapur district.

"They (farmers) have been demanding a hike in Minimum Support Price (MSP) of cotton to [FONT=4e60208b5715068d53699ec8#940f00]R[/FONT]s. 6,000 per quintal as against the ongoing Rs. 3,300 per quintal," said Kishor Tiwari of Vidarbha Jan Andolan Samiti (VJAS).

As many as 51 farmers committed suicide during the month of August alone.


Farmers have also been demanding lifting of the ban on cotton export.

"We demand a hike in cotton MSP and urgent relief of food security, fresh crop loan disbursement and healthcare services," Tiwari said.

Tiwari's VJAS has been documenting Vidarbha farm suicides since 1997.

In Andhra Pradesh, 10 newborns died in just 47 hours and no one's quite sure just who is to blame? The deceased babies, all of whom were premature, needed intensive neonatal care, which the General Hospital in the state's Kurnool district wasn't equipped to handle.

Re: 10 babies dead in 48 hours at Andhra hospital

Lagta hai aap ko indian fever ho gaya hai jo non stop india k khilaf news post kar rahay hain. we know india is a poor country & worse than pakistan. BUt their army is in civilian control not out of control. Indian prime minister said to its nation long time ago that we cant over come poverty but we will give u education so you can come over your poverty through the help of education. But pakistan cant do that coz we need missile & fighter planes & sub marines so our army officers can make money thorugh kick backs.
