Summary
Bharatasathi (“For Bharat”) is a Marathi book by Sharad Joshi, founder of the Shetkari Sanghatana farmers’ movement. The title invokes Joshi’s central distinction between “India” — the prosperous, subsidised urban-industrial economy — and “Bharat” — the rural, agrarian producers he argued were systematically exploited by state pricing and controls. The book belongs to his body of writing making the case for Bharat.
