Government is misleading MSP - Choduni

At the same time, Bharatiya Kisan Union (Haryana) President Gurnam Singh Chaduni on the ticker border said that the government was misleading in the name of MSP. BJP is saying everywhere that MSP will be given. Government ministers are also repeating the same. Whereas Home Minister Amit Shah had clearly stated in the meeting on 8 December that the government cannot buy all 23 crops on MSP, why it costs 17 lakh crores.

Farmers meet Rajnath

Meanwhile, different groups met Tomar and Defense Minister Rajnath Singh to take further action. The protesters are leading the government's dialogue with representatives of 40 unions of farmers. He is joined by Union Minister of Commerce and Industry and Food, Piyush Goyal, and Minister of State for Commerce and Industry, Som Prakash.

The five rounds of talks between the Center and the farmer leaders so far have been inconclusive. Farmers' organizations claimed that demonstrations were also organized at several district headquarters across the country.

Bhartiya Kisan Union Ekta Ugrahan did not participate in the fast

Bhartiya Kisan Union Ekta Ugrahan leaders did not participate in the fast. The same organization had demanded the release of the inmates of the jail and when it went viral, it said that some anti-social elements are trying to spoil the atmosphere under the guise of the peasant movement. Punjab's general secretary of the organization Sukhdev Singh said that we have been defamed. Farmer organizations also misunderstood us, we had only raised the issue of release of prisoners under human rights.
