After Friday's meeting, Agriculture Minister Narendra Singh Tomar said that no consensus has been reached. Tomar said that despite the government putting options, the farmers' organizations remained adamant on withdrawing all the three laws. 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. The Agriculture Minister said that external forces are responsible for the stubborn attitude of the farmer leaders and it is difficult to find any solution when the sanctity of the movement is lost. Farmer leaders, however, said they would accept nothing less than the withdrawal of new agricultural laws.

Tomar told reporters after the meeting that several proposals have been made during the talks till now by the central government, including the implementation of the three agricultural laws, postponement of 12-18 months, and the formation of a committee to find solutions through discussion till then Farmers' organizations are adamant on rejecting these laws. He said that some forces want the farmers' movement to continue and no dialogue can produce any better result.

Thousands of farmers from Punjab, Haryana, Uttar Pradesh, and other states are protesting on the borders of Delhi. The performance began on 26 November.
