(Riya Singh, Intern Journalist): Union Agriculture Minister Narendra Singh Tomar has invited protesting farmers for talks at 3 pm on Tuesday citing the winter season and pandemic since they are holding agitations in cold on roads and highways. The talks were earlier scheduled for December 3. Speaking on the matter, the Union Minister said it was decided that the next round of talks will be held on December 3 but farmers are agitating, it’s winter and there’s COVID. So the meeting should be held earlier. So farmer leaders – present in 1st round of talks – have been invited at Vigyan Bhavan on December 1 (Tuesday) at 3 pm.
“When Farm laws were brought, they caused some misconception among farmers. We held two rounds of talks with farmer leaders on October 14 and November 13. At that time too we had urged them to not go for agitation and that the government is ready for talks, Narendra Singh Tomar added.
