The Sanyukta Kisan Morcha, the banner under which farmers are protesting against the three farm laws, is expected to take a stand on Wednesday on the government’s open invitation for talks but the farming community feels the contents of the invite have not created a conducive atmosphere.
Matters have not been helped by the unabated effort by the government or those associated with it to misrepresent facts, which the farmers view as an attempt at belittling their movement.
Delhi police also denied permission to hold an event to pay tribute to Chaudhary Charan Singh, a crusader for agrarian rights and former Prime Minister whose cremation site in the capital is known as Kisan Ghat.
