Today is the 51st day of the peasant movement. The 10th round of talks between the central government and farmer leaders has started at Vigyan Bhavan today. The farmers said that we just want the return of agricultural laws. Also, that our crops get a legal guarantee of MSP. Farmer leader Darshan Pal said that we have come for talks, but there is not much hope. Agriculture Minister Narendra Singh Tomar said that we want to find a solution from the conversation. When asked about the committee set up by the Supreme Court, he said - If the committee called us, we will go to present our side.
A committee of 4 experts was formed on January 12 on the order of the Supreme Court to discuss the agricultural laws with the farmers. On January 14, two days later, the chairman of the Bharatiya Kisan Union, Bhupinder Singh Mann, withdrew his name from the committee. Now the committee can hold its first meeting with the farmers on 19 January.
