Farmers organizations reject proposal to amend agricultural law

The forums of more than 30 farmer organizations protesting against the agricultural laws of the Center have rejected the government's proposal to amend the law by writing a letter to the central government.

On Tuesday, the day the farmers 'organizations announced their plans, on the same day, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said that the farmers' organization and sometimes the opposition who demand these laws are confusing the farmers. In response, the farmers accused the government of lacking sympathy for the farming community.

Farmer leaders also said that the result of their pressure on the Center is that the government has decided to cancel the winter session of Parliament. He said that by canceling the session, the government wants to avoid the questions of the opposition.

Bharatiya Kisan Sangh (Tikait) general secretary Yudhveer Singh Sehrawat said, "We elected the Prime Minister and gave him the power to speak and in the last 20 days till now he has not said anything for us."
