New Delhi,Dec 9, 2020:The protesting farmers have rejected the government’s proposals to amend while sticking to their demand for a complete repeal of the three farm laws and the proposed Electricity (Amendment) Bill, 2000.
The farmers have decided to escalate their protest and called for a nation-wide sit-in protests on December 14. The Delhi-Jaipur Highway will be blocked on December 12, the farmers said.
“We reject all the proposals. These are old proposals dressed up as new. Protests will continue across the state. We will continue protests unless the three laws are repealed,” said a farmer leader addressing a press conference after a meeting of farmers over the government proposals.
