Reply to center’s letter of 20 December.
Farmers talked clearly, but govt was not clear. Govt is dealing with farmers like they are opposition party.
Govt’s attitude will force farmers to intensify their protest.
We don’t want amendments but repeal of laws.
We are ready for talks. We appeal to govt to send strong proposal letter so that we can start talks.
We urge the govt to not talk about amendments that we already rejected.
Govt is taking matter very lightly. Farmers constitute 60 percent of India’s population: Farmer leader
During 5th round of talks, Agri minister asked what is your problem with provisions of new laws? We said that these laws are not good for farmers: Shiv Kumar Kakka
We don’t want amendments. In USA these laws were implemented. But happened to American farmers. New laws are an attempt to make entire country laborers: Shiv Kumar Kakka.
We are not here for tourism. We want solution. Till now we have lost nearly 40 people. Govt thinks farmers will get tired and people will go back: Hannan Mola
We will appeal to people to boycott Ambani and Adani ass they are looters: Hannan Mola
Narendra Modi should tell in his Mann Ki Baat programme that govt will buy 23 crops’ entire produce at MSP: Gurnam Chaduni
We talked to Amit Shah about fixing MSP formula. We told him that govt should allow Private players to buy crops but it should fix MSP. If we sell crop at lesser price than MSP then government should pay us the amount of difference between MSP and selling price: Farmer leader
Gurnam Chaduni said that Amit Shah told them in meeting that Govt won’t buy 100 percent produce of all 23 crops.
Yogendra Yadav reiterated that farm leaders are ready for talks. But govt should send some concrete proposal not proposal of amendments.
Replying to question of whether movements has been hijacked by comrades:
Till today, we have not talked about left or anti left in meeting. We only talked about repeal of three laws: Yogendra Yadav
We don’t want this gift from Government. We don’t want donation, but price.(Daan nhi Chahiye, Daam Chahiye.): Yogendra Yadav
