Farmers are said to be happy with the Agriculture Act and farmers protesting against these laws are called ‘terrorists’ and what not … but, it is true that the rights of the farmers are being taken away. I have brought the message of the farmers. The authorities are trying to silence the voice of the farmers. Efforts are being made to prevent these issues from being discussed in Parliament. But they will have to withdraw all the three controversial agricultural laws, said Rahul Gandhi.
