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.

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