[edit]This article is about a recent event in Western Orissa and should be merged with that article to give the event context. Otherwise, it seems like a news event. Xtzou (talk) 15:12, 1 April 2010 (UTC)
- The farmers suicide in western Orissa is still happening. I feel that this article should be separated from western Orissa. But it should be linked to western Orissa. (Skarmee (talk) 15:45, 1 April 2010 (UTC))
- How long has it been going on? (Perhaps you should put a date in the title?) Xtzou (Talk) 20:07, 3 April 2010 (UTC)
- Actually, it is hard to find out the exact starting date of farmers suicide. According to one of the leading Journalist P Sainath “Farmers' suicides in remote parts of the country have a way of appearing in and disappearing from our national media and national consciousness.
- You are right. It is an interesting story. Is it only in Orissa that this is occurring, or other places also? Xtzou (Talk) 15:49, 4 April 2010 (UTC)
- The Orissa govt. records show 3,509 farmers committed suicide in the last 11 years. However, the year 2009 was dreadful for most of the farmers in western Orissa. Do you think I should put 2009? It is also happening in other states viz. Karnataka, Andhra pradesh, Maharastra, and Bundelkhand. Also there are report that Farmers sell wives to pay debts in rural India. Thanks (Skarmee (talk) 15:59, 4 April 2010 (UTC))
- I believe this article may be acceptable within Wiki as a separate but linked article, once it can be written in more neutral language and with verifiable sources. Continued editing of the current content may present a good starting point for further relevant content.Editfromwithout (talk) 21:34, 13 June 2012 (UTC)
