Farmer unions defer decision on Centre’s letter for fresh talks

NEW DELHI: Protesting farmer unions on Tuesday said that a decision on the central government’s offer for fresh talks has been deferred to Wednesday, even as they remained adamant on the demand to repeal the three farm laws.
Addressing a press conference at Delhi’s Singhu Border, farmer leader Kulwant Singh Sandhu said that 32 farmer unions from Punjab held a meeting and discussed the next course of action.
He said that a meeting of farmer leaders from across India would be held on Wednesday where a decision on the government’s talks offer will be taken.
Sandhu said that they would also write to Britain MPs, urging them to press their Prime Minister Boris Johnson not to attend India’s Republic Day celebrations on January 26. Johnson will be the chief guest at the event next month.
