Farmers' protest highlights: Traffic to Delhi hit as pro-Farm Law farmers gather in Noida

Protesting farmer unions alleged on Thursday that the government's latest letter for talks is nothing but a 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. A delegation of 60 farmers belonging to Kisaan Majdoor Sangh, Baghpat met Union Agriculture Minister Narendra Singh Tomar at Krishi Bhawan. As the protest against the farm laws continued into its 29th day, Congress leaders marched to the Rashtrapati Bhavan and submitted to the President a memorandum containing 2 crore signatures seeking his intervention in farm laws issue. Prime Minister Narendra Modi is set to interact on December 25 with farmers from six states during which they will share their experience on various initiatives taken by the Centre, in yet another outreach attempt. Stay tuned on DH for more latest updates.
