New Delhi: Today is the 44th day of the farmers’ agitation against agricultural laws.

The farmers, who are camping on the borders of Delhi amid intense cold and rain, are not in a mood to return without ensuring fulfillment of their demands.

The farmers are camping at different borders of Delhi amidst the intense cold wave. Till now, due to the solution of the issue, the resentment among the farmers is continuously increasing. Meanwhile, today the 9th round meeting between the farmers organization and the government is going to take place.

Rakesh Tikait, national spokesperson of the Bharatiya Kisan Union (BKU) has said that the farmers are ready to continue the movement till May 2024.

“We will not end the agitation until the government accepts our demand,” he said.

Till now eight rounds of meetings have been held between the government and farmer representatives, but so far no solution has been reached. On January 4, there was an eighth round meeting between the government and the farmers, but no result was reached in this meeting.

A large number of farmers have been blocking different borders of Delhi since November 26, demanding the repeal of the new agricultural laws. The farmers have blockaded many border points connecting Delhi to Uttar Pradesh and Haryana including Singhu, Tikri, Palwal and Ghazipur.

Till now right rounds of negotiations have been held between the government and the farmers, but all the efforts have been inconclusive.

At present, there is no solution to the issue. Negotiations also took place between the government and the farmers, but all efforts were inconclusive. The farmers are demanding complete removal of three new agricultural laws.

The farmers’ organizations are not willing to scale down their demands of a repeal of the agricultural laws and guarantee for the minimum support price (MSP) system.

Seeing that there is no solution to the issue among them, the anger among the farmers is gradually increasing.
