Prime Time With Ravish Kumar: Meeting Between Centre And Farmers Fails To End Deadlock

Prime Time With Ravish Kumar - December 03, 2020: The seven-hour meeting between the Centre and farmers today failed to end the deadlock, with farmers' representatives saying nothing less than the scrapping of the contentious laws will satisfy them. Union agriculture minister Narendra Tomar, who led the negotiations, said the government "has no ego". The next meeting will be held on Saturday. Farmers who warned that today's meeting was the government's "last chance" to repeal the contentious laws had refused to accept food, team and even water from the government. At today's meeting, the farmers' representatives made a presentation on the inadequacies of the contentious new farm laws, after which the government gave its views. At the lunch break during the meeting, farmers refused to have the food offered by the government. "They offered us food, we denied and are sticking to our langar which we have brought with us," a farmer leader said. (Audio in Hindi)
