00:00 Farmers from Punjab and Haryana are moving towards Delhi on MSP guarantee law.
00:06 More than 20,000 farmers are moving towards Delhi.
00:09 And seeing this, Delhi, Punjab, Haryana and UP's borders have been sealed.
00:15 In Delhi and Haryana and many districts of Punjab, section 144 has been imposed.
00:20 Due to the impact of the farmer's movement, the market of the country is likely to suffer a loss of thousands of crores.
00:30 If no solution is found in this, the economy is likely to be badly affected.
00:35 Hi, this is Bhavna and you are watching GoodReturns.
00:38 In this video, we will understand in detail how much the economy can be affected.
00:44 When protests like this take place, does the economy feel a shock?
00:48 And how much did the economy suffer last time when this protest took place?
00:53 But before that, listen to Jaspreet Singh, who has a tire shop on the Singhu border.
00:58 He told us how much he is suffering from the protests.
01:02 Sir, your name?
01:03 My name is Jaspreet Singh.
01:05 Jaspreet ji, tell me that the farmers' protest that is going on now, has started.
01:10 It is a little far to reach Delhi.
01:13 You have a shop here. What would you like to say about it?
01:16 Sir, the last time it happened that the whole work was stopped.
01:19 And it took us about a year to finish.
01:23 And I think the same condition is going to happen again.
01:26 Because our shop is on the border.
01:28 And we have only one car since morning.
01:30 So if this continues, how will we survive?
01:33 There are many shops around here.
01:37 So this is a big problem for us.
01:39 Because everyone's family runs from this shop.
01:42 So the issue is very big, but the government should understand this.
01:46 And should think about it.
01:48 And should solve their demands together.
01:51 Because what happens is that all the people who live nearby, all the shops,
01:56 all their things get disturbed.
01:58 All their things get spoiled.
02:00 So the problem is very big, but the government should see it.
02:03 Now we are also facing this thing.
02:05 So how many customers have you had since morning?
02:07 Sir, this is the first car I have had since morning.
02:09 Now you can see that it is afternoon.
02:11 And I also feel that if the rush gets too much here,
02:14 then we will have to go home by shutting down.
02:16 Let's see, we hope that this thing gets cleared soon.
02:20 And we can get back to work.
02:23 If this happens, how much loss will there be?
02:25 Sir, there is monthly rent, there is labor.
02:28 So let's say we have 45,000 plus rent.
02:31 And we have two laborers.
02:33 So the electricity bill, whatever our expense is,
02:35 it is 60,000 to 70,000.
02:37 Which we will have to pay by zip.
02:39 Because there is no possibility of working here.
02:42 Yes sir, that's all.
02:44 Right now, everyone is worried.
02:46 If you go and ask anyone,
02:48 everyone says that this thing should not happen.
02:51 The government should look at it.
02:53 Not only Jaspreet Singh,
02:55 there are many other businessmen, shopkeepers,
02:58 who are likely to be affected.
03:00 Due to the farmers coming from Punjab to Delhi,
03:03 there is a heavy traffic jam on the roads.
03:05 This has affected the goods.
03:07 Hundreds of trucks have been stuck on the roads of Punjab and Delhi.
03:11 The farmers' road can now have a business impact of crores of rupees every day.
03:16 Along with the National Highway,
03:18 other roads have been completely closed.
03:21 Due to the farmers' movement,
03:26 the routes have been diverted in Delhi.
03:28 This is now causing the vehicles to travel longer.
03:31 The cost of goods is decided according to the kilometer.
03:35 In this case, the vehicles that have to travel a long distance,
03:39 will directly affect the goods.
03:42 This will increase the cost of goods.
03:45 It will also take more time to supply goods.
03:48 And this will also increase the cost.
03:50 According to media reports,
03:52 the Transport Association says that
03:54 due to this protest by the farmers,
03:56 about 10,000 trucks have been stuck on the roads.
03:59 Among them, about 6,000 to 7,000 trucks are such
04:02 that they have to supply goods in Delhi.
04:04 At this time,
04:05 the vehicles that supply essential goods are being left behind
04:08 and the rest of the vehicles are being stopped.
04:10 Transport companies contract with factories and producers
04:13 at a fixed rate to supply goods.
04:17 Now, as supplies do not reach on time,
04:19 transport companies are also afraid of penalties
04:22 because their costing will increase.
04:24 From Delhi, a lot of goods are supplied from Punjab
04:27 to Himachal Pradesh and Jammu Kashmir.
04:30 Businessmen send their goods to other states.
04:33 Due to the farmer's protest,
04:35 these goods will not be able to be supplied.
04:38 A lot of goods come from Punjab to Delhi.
04:41 According to media reports,
04:42 now the farmers' roads will be affected by a loss of crores of rupees every day.
04:47 According to a prediction,
04:48 every day there will be a loss of 500 to 600 crores.
04:52 Only this is the transportation,
04:54 the supply in this process.
04:56 Wood, hardware, spare parts, auto parts, clothes,
05:00 toys, dry fruits, fruits, vegetables, etc.
05:04 Due to the farmers' protest,
05:06 the supply of vegetables and fruits will take time to reach Delhi.
05:10 Trucks are now having to travel a lot to reach Delhi.
05:13 Because of this, transporters are now thinking of increasing the goods.
05:17 In this way, it will affect the prices of goods
05:20 because they will become expensive.
05:22 In addition, on February 16,
05:24 the joint farmer's protest has called for a lockdown in India.
05:27 In this way, a loss of 25,000 crores can be incurred.
05:31 According to a prediction by the CII in December 2020,
05:35 a loss of 25,000 to 30,000 crores on the economy from the Indian bond for a day.
05:41 Then, whether the Indian bond is called by a political party
05:44 or a farmer's organization,
05:46 but the loss of 25,000 to 30,000 crores
05:49 has to be borne by the Indian economy.
05:52 Now let us tell you what will be missing
05:55 when India will be closed on February 16.
05:57 So the most important thing is fruits and vegetables,
06:00 dry fruits, wood, hardware, spare parts, auto parts, machinery,
06:04 and all the products related to it,
06:06 clothes, toys, as I told you earlier,
06:09 their supply will be impacted.
06:11 In this way, the effect of any protest is not only happening this time.
06:16 When you remember that last time,
06:18 against the three agricultural laws of the central government,
06:20 on November 25, 2020, farmers from many states including Punjab started a protest,
06:25 which lasted for about 378 days.
06:28 And this protest ended on December 11, 2021.
06:31 Even then, the Indian Chamber of Commerce and Industry issued data
06:36 and said that because of the farmer's protest,
06:38 Punjab and Haryana governments lost about 35 million rupees per day.
06:44 While the Uttar Madhya Railway alone lost 22 million rupees in earnings,
06:49 and other departments also had to suffer heavy losses because of this protest.
06:54 If we talk about the overall loss this time,
06:57 which is going on as of now due to this March, due to the closure of India,
07:01 then there is an estimate of a loss of 4000 crores per day in this protest.
07:07 Soon, the trade body will issue data on the loss.
07:10 You know that on Saturday, the Shambhu border was also closed.
07:14 Shambhu toll plaza will also remain closed until the coming orders.
07:18 The closure of the toll plaza will cause the government to lose about 70 lakh rupees in revenue.
07:25 So see, the estimate of this time was around 35 million last time.
07:30 This time, the estimate has been set at 4000 crores.
07:35 That so much loss can be due to this protest.
07:38 Well, the most thought-provoking thing in this is that
07:41 as we showed you a video in the beginning,
07:44 in which Jaspreet Singh, who had a tire shop,
07:49 also told that the daily expenses of small businesses,
07:54 the entire monthly expenses that they have to pay,
07:57 that is very much impacted.
07:59 So in such a situation, it is necessary that a middle way is found between the farmers and the government,
08:06 so that the business that is running, whose house is running from it,
08:09 depends on it, they do not have to suffer loss.
08:14 What do you think about this protest?
08:16 I would request you all to think from a financial angle,
08:20 that how much loss is India also getting from this?
08:24 That's all in the video, how did you find the information?
