Letters Free electricity
This is with reference to the editorial "Ending free lunches" (Business Line, March 18). Tamil Nadu's decision to discontinue free electricity to farmers is a step in the right direction. In fact, it is not the small and marginal farmers, but the big landlords who benefited largely from the scheme. Most of the marginal and small farmers do not own bore-wells and depend on the big landlords for water. Exploiting the situation and the free-electricity given by the Government, the landlords sell the water.
