Agricultural risk and resilience

There is a determined bid by the state, particularly the police, the contractor's henchmen and the political parties to dissipate the anti-arrack movement in Andhra Pradesh. The movement has not merely raised the women's question as is being portrayed by the press and a section of the intelligentsia, but has targeted its attack on the nexus between the politicians, police and arrack contractors.
