Centre says open for talks with farmers on farm laws ahead of another protest    

NEW DELHI: Ahead of another farmer protest planned for month-end against the three farm laws, the Centre on Saturday asserted that these laws are in the interest of the farming community and it was still open to have dialogue with them and clear their doubts. Union Agriculture Minister Narendra Singh Tomar as well as Food Minister Piyush Goyal said these laws are enacted by the Central Government in order to give more options to farmers to sell their produce at better rates, but states like Punjab are “misleading” them.
Speaking to reporters, Tomar said: “If they (Opposition) wear farmers’ glasses and see the laws, they will be able to see the benefits for farmers. If they see from the political prism, they cannot see the benefits.” (AGENCIES)
