Govt calls farmers for talks on Wed, PM says acts will better their lives

On the agenda are detailed talks on three farm laws, MSP procurement system and Electricity Amendment bill, and ordinance to tackle air pollution in and around Delhi-NCR

The Centre today once again invited 40 farmer unions for the next round of talks on December 30 on all ‘relevant issues’ to break the current impasse, even as Prime Minister Narendra Modi continued his offensive in support of the acts saying that the reforms are meant to better their lives.

Responding to the letter sent by the protesting farmers unions last week expressing their willingness to hold talks on the ways to repeal the three agriculture acts, the Centre today said that just like the protesting farmers, it is also committed to finding a logical solution on all relevant issues
