Haryana Farmers Break Ranks, Say Amended Farm Laws Will Suffice

A section of Haryana farmers have accepted in writing that they want the farm laws to stay, but with amendments. Representatives of three groups, which claimed to cumulatively represent 1,20,000 farmers from the state, met agriculture minister Narendra Tomar on Monday evening, ahead of tomorrow’s all-India strike by farmers and the sixth meeting between the farmers and the Centre on Wednesday.
A letter signed by the three organisations read: “These bills should be continued as suggested by farmer organizations. We are in favour of MSP and mandi (specialised market) system as suggested by farmers’ organizations. But we request you to continue these laws with suggested amendments.”

In the last meeting with the government on Saturday, the farmer representatives had turned down the offer of amendment in the three farm laws, contending that they would not accept anything other than their scrapping.

Thousands of farmers from Punjab and Haryana have been camping out at the borders of Delhi for more than 10 days in the intense cold, having reached there braving tear gas, water cannons, police batons and barricades. Over this period, three farmers have died.

The farmers, however, have maintained that they would not capitulate on their demands. Many said they were prepared for a long haul and would not return home till they achieved their objective.

Dharmendra Arya, member of a Jhajjar-based FPO, who met Mr Tomar on Monday, said, “The laws brought by the government should not be withdrawn but amendments should be made as also demanded by the farm unions… The new laws empower the new farmers to sell their produce in open market”.

“Currently the farmers sitting on protest face harassment by commission agents. The Centre purchases wheat and paddy from farmers of Punjab and Haryana at MSP but for a limited period of time in each season. If markets are opened, we can sell other crops through online merchants. We also demand the govt to ensure that crops are sold at MSP,” he added.
