A few days back, 10 indebted farmers from Hingoli district in Maharashtra made a unique but strange plea to the Chief Minister. They were willing to put their body organs to auction so as to pay back loans to the nationalised banks from the money so raised. They offered to sell their body organs, and in fact had a 'rate card' ready - Rs 90,000 for liver, Rs 75,000 for a kidney and Rs 25,000 for an eye. While this strange offer did create a ruckus in the Maharashtra Assembly, it was all forgotten after a few days. The tragedy being that anything that depicts agrarian distress is brushed away rather easily.
