New Delhi: In the midst of a continuous protest against three farm laws, a designation of 29 kisans from Haryana met Agriculture Minister Narendra Singh Tomar on Saturday to stretch out their help to the new enactments and took steps to arrange a protest if those are revoked.
The appointment, driven by Bharatiya Kisan Union’s (Mann) Haryana state leader Guni Prakash, presented a “letter of help” to Tomar on the farm laws passed by Parliament in September and requested the government to proceed with these enactments.
“We will also protest if the government repeals the laws. We have given a memorandum to all districts,” Prakash told reporters after the gathering.
He additionally looked to know why the past government didn’t execute the suggestions of the Swaminathan Commission till 2014.
“Everyone has a right to protest. They have, so do we. We are in support of the three laws, but this protest is being led by Leftists and those who are violent,” he said.
Guaranteeing that the progressing kisans’ disturbance is not, at this point a laborer development, the BKU leader stated, “It has taken a political colour. Farmers will get real freedom through these three laws.”
This was the second gathering of kisans from Haryana that met Tomar and stretched out help to the farm laws. The primary gathering had met the minister on December 7.
No advancement has been accomplished during the six rounds of talks between the Center and the unsettling kisans up until now, as the kisans have adhered to their interest for an annulment of the laws, in spite of the government sending them a draft proposition to revise explicit issues without nullifying the enactments.
The three laws have been introduced by the government as significant changes in the agriculture area that will eliminate the agents and permit kisans to sell their produce anyplace in the nation.
