Farmers have been protesting on different borders of the national capital since November 26 against the three newly enacted farm laws — Farmers’ Produce Trade and Commerce (Promotion and Facilitation) Act, 2020, the Farmers (Empowerment and Protection) Agreement on Price Assurance and Farm Services Act, 2020, and the Essential Commodities (Amendment) Act, 2020.
So far the central government has held several rounds of talks with farmers’ organisations including a meeting called by Union Home Minister Amit Shah offering changes to the laws and written assurances.
