Farmer Protest LIVE Updates: Amid the intensifying farm agitation, PM will speak with farmers from six states and release benefits under PM-Kisan scheme virtually. 

Meanwhile. Protesting farmer unions alleged that the government's latest letter for talks is nothing but propaganda against the peasants to create an impression that they are not interested in dialogue and asked it to put the scrapping of the three recent farm laws in the agenda to resume the parley.
