Krishi Pradhan Desh!
That's what this country is called, and known as to the rest of the world.
And guess what, in that very country, the data of something as crucial as Farmers' Suicide has been lost!
Why?
Because of course, the data shows such a huge hike in the rate of the mishaps, that it's almost shameful for a government to even own.
Since 2016, India has seen a never-before hike in the rate of Farmers' Suicide. In 2014, more than 60,000 farmers have died from committing suicide, in Maharashtra alone - which makes an average of 10 deaths a day. The other states bear almost the same statistics.
Being a country that has 70% of its population as farmers, farmers deaths account to almost 12% of total deaths in India.
And our government is completely ignorant and quiet about it.
After onions, market price of potatoes is increasing with jumps - and yet, the farmers never get the share of the price those are being sold at. Where the common people have to buy onions at 100 Rs a Kg, them people - they get the mere value of 8-9 Rs per Kg.
Keeping the expenditure of seeds, crops, fertilizers and everything else, and the expenses of their own day-to-day wages - the farmers, they're hardly left with anything to keep, to feed themselves.
How do they sustain their life amidst this unbearable circumstance!
There are fights put up for all the reasons, protests built up on all the contexts - and yet, nobody's bothered to raise their voice for the people who provide us with the food we eat.
Ekla Cholo Re, by EPR is not merely a song - it's like a warcry. It's a warcry for people who are dying, and nobody cares enough to bat an eye.
Originally performed at the final of MTV Hustle, this song went viral across all the platforms - for all the right reasons.
Listen to Ekla Cholo Re, and let it resonate with you in a way that makes you stand up - for the ones who need our voices the most.

If this doesnt get the same recognition as any Bantai song, then we dont deserve Hiphop.
Can we appreciate for one second the guy who played the role of the farmer in the video? His powerful acting is complementing this powerful song.
Ekla chalo r
I'm from a farmer family, I'm an agriculture student, I know the pain of the farmers very well...thank you epr for raising our issues
The dislikers must be adopted by ambanis!!!
No offense to any other rapper but this is my request to every hip hop listener please promote EPR coz this guy is way ahead of us in writing❣️❣️ I remember he lost to Bella in finale because of "phonetics" but I felt that was kinda unfair because he is not very fluent in Hindi still he rapped in Hindi so that his rap reaches to masses and affect the condition of farmers in our country. He was really there for the hip-hop culture❤️
Whos come here after the NDTV interview...
Other hustlers are playing diss game while epr producing pure gems.....hatsoffman!🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Who think epr iyer is the best?
The dislikes are from the Gaumutra gang.
this is so deep.thats all i can say....one of the best
He is most deserved hip hop artist
Goosebumps
Totally goosebumps..........❤
THIS IS OUR LEGEND EPR 🥶🔥.
No vote to BJP
EPR 🎇❤️
This is called 'Rap' or Hip Hop. Try avoiding shits and support the authentic artists
still inspirational
When you first time hear this rap , its feel nothing special but as soon as you realise the lyrics & the message, it's turns into a gem of protest poetry . No news channel is talking about this farmar suicide crisis & Day by day it's becoming more dangerous. EPR's 3 min rap tells about the reality of a avarage farmer .
