Repeal agricultural laws, otherwise close Delhi; Farmers warn government

New Delhi: Farmers protesting against the Union Agriculture Act have warned the government to convene a special session to repeal the Farm Laws or else close Delhi. The agitating farmers also demanded that the government should invite farmers from all over the country except Punjab. (farmers give warning to government)

We ended our meeting and initially the government had called only the farmers of Punjab, we rejected the proposal to form a committee of four representatives. The purpose behind it was to invite other farmers in the country for discussion, said Professor Darshanpal while giving information about the agitation. The government had objected to the name of Yogendra Yadav. The government tried to show that this is just a farmers’ movement in Punjab. The government tried to divide us. He also tried to scare us, said Professor Darshanpal.

We are ready to write to them again tomorrow. We demand the repeal of three Central Agricultural Acts. “We demand that the government convene a special session to repeal these laws,” he said. We will write to the government again to repeal these laws. Otherwise there will be agitation. “We will close the whole of Delhi,” he added.

We have appealed to burn the statue of Modi government all over the country on the 5th. In the whole country, we will hold a dam on the 5th. The players and artists who have received national awards will return the awards on the 7th, said Professor Darshanpal.
