Farmers' protest highlights: 'No one was consulted', says Chidambaram on farm laws
The Maharashtra Congress will "gherao" Raj Bhavan in Nagpur today to demand the withdrawal of the Centre's new farm laws and protest against fuel price hikes. Yesterday, Agriculture Minister Narendra Singh Tomar urged farmer unions to form an informal group among themselves to prepare concrete proposals to be discussed in the next meeting as discussions at the ninth round of talks could not reach a decisive stage. The two sides decided to meet again on January 19 at 12 pm. The Supreme Court on January 11 had stayed the implementation of the three laws till further orders and appointed a four-member panel to resolve the impasse. Stay tuned for more updates.
