What did the central government say?
Union Agriculture Minister Narendra Singh Tomar said on Saturday that “all the three agricultural laws will be put up for repeal on the day of the commencement of the Parliament session”. Tomar said that the Prime Minister has announced the formation of a committee to consider subjects like zero budget farming, crop diversification, making MSP effective, transparent. Representatives of the agitating farmers will also be there in this committee.

After the withdrawal of agricultural law, the Modi government accepted another demand of the farmers.

‘Now farmers go back home’
Tomar said that the farmers’ organizations had demanded that farmers should be freed from the punishable offense for burning stubble. The Government of India has also accepted this demand. He said that after the announcement of the cancellation of all the three agricultural laws, I understand that now there is no justification for the agitation, so I request the farmers and farmer organizations to end their agitation and return to their respective homes. ‘

BJP issues opposition to Lok Sabha MPs
BJP has issued a protest to all its Lok Sabha MPs asking them to be present in the house on November 29, the first day of the winter session of Parliament. The government is going to introduce the Bill ‘Agriculture Laws Repeal Bill – 2021’ in the Lok Sabha on Monday itself. The intention of the government is to get this bill passed by the Lok Sabha on Monday itself after the discussion and hence the party has issued a protest to all its Lok Sabha MPs and asked them to be present in the house.
