The Samyukta Kisan Morcha (SKM), an umbrella group of nearly 40 farmer unions, will host a meeting.
Farmers’ leaders have decided to meet at the Singhu Border on Wednesday at 2 p.m. to make a final decision on the farmers’ protest.
Possible decision
Farmers’ leaders may opt to call an end to their protests against the Modi government’s repeal of three farm laws at the central government. The farmer’s organisation summoned a meeting of its top officials at the Singhu border on Tuesday to discuss the draft proposal from the Centre.
Rakesh Tikait, the leader of the Bharatiya Kisan Union (BKU), was unable to attend the meeting on Tuesday since he was attending another event in Uttarakhand. On the December 8, he will attend an important meeting.
He claimed that the decision of the Samyukta Kisan Morcha (SKM) will be final and that everyone, including the Bharatiya Kisan Morcha, will follow it (BKM).
The Samyukta Kisan Morcha (SKM), according to sources, is leaning toward putting an end to the agitation, which has lasted more than a year. Last year on November 25, the farmers began their protest.
When asked about the meeting between farmers and the government, he refused to comment. He did add, though, that whatever needs to be decided will be addressed at the crucial meeting tomorrow.
Farm laws
Prime Minister Narendra Modi announced the repeal of the three farm laws on November 19, and the bill was passed unanimously by both chambers of Parliament on the first day of the Winter Session.
The Government, on the other hand, refused to allow a discussion on the subject, which infuriated the opposition. In Parliament, a wave of protests erupted over this issue.
