In Round 5 Meet, Centre Gives Written Proposal To Farmer Unions

Hours after Prime Minister Narendra Modi held a high-level meet at his home, the fifth round of talks began between the centre and farmers this afternoon over the contentious farm laws. Defence Minister Rajnath Singh, Home Minister Amit Shah, Agriculture Minister Narendra Singh Tomar met at PM Modi's house, say sources, adding the centre may consider amending the laws. Amid growing support, thousands camping around Delhi borders are insistent on the laws being repealed. Two rounds of talks this week have fallen through despite repeated assurances from the centre on the minimum support price or MSP. This is the biggest farmers' protest in years, and numbers continue to swell at Delhi's borders amid Covid pandemic that has affected over 96 lakh people in India.
