Federal Minister of Agriculture Narendra Singh Tomar (Narendra Singh Tomar) will propose a bill in the House of Commons on Monday to repeal the three agricultural laws that were promulgated in 1999 and sparked prolonged protests.

The bill stated that “only a small proportion of farmers are protesting” the legislation, and it also stated that it will take time to lead everyone to achieve inclusive growth.

This month, Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi announced the revocation of the law and stated that the government had failed to convince some farmers.

The proposed law was introduced in the House of Commons in September 2020 and submitted to a parliamentary committee in March.
