Farm Laws Repeal: BKU's Rakesh Tikait Refuses to Call Off Protests Despite PM's Announcement on Rollback

News 18  

Rakesh Tikait, the leader of the Bhartiya Kisan Union, on Friday said his outfit will not withdraw the farmers’ protest immediately but will instead wait for the controversial farm laws to be repealed in Parliament as announced by Prime Minister Narendra Modi earlier in the day. In an address to the nation, PM Modi said the three laws were passed last year to benefit small farmers and get them higher returns for their produce. Modi added that his government had tried to explain and take the benefits of the three farm laws to the farming community, but could not convince some farmers. Farmer leader Rakesh Tikait had earlier this month said the agitation would be intensified if the government did not repeal the farm laws by November 26, to mark one year since the protest was launched.
