He said that the government is fully committed to the welfare of farmers. Tomar said that the government has urged the farmers to reconsider the government's proposals. He said that farmers' organizations can inform the government about their decision by tomorrow.

He said that some forces want the farmers' movement to continue and no dialogue can produce any better result.
