New Delhi: Leader of Bharatiya Kisan Union (BKU) Rakesh Tikait on Saturday said that the struggle to get the law on the minimum support price for farmer products will continue.
“Farmers have lost more than 700 people they love in that movement.
Farmers will never forget these days last year,” said Tikait in a tweet (roughly translated from Hindi).
“MSP is the backbone of farmers and farmers who want MSP guarantee law to save the future of agriculture! The fight continues, the fight will continue,” he added.
On November 19 last year, Prime Minister Narendra Modi announced that the center would bring the required bill in the parliamentary winter session to revoke agricultural laws.
Both Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha passed the agricultural law revoked the bill on the first day of the winter session.
RAM President Nath Kovind also gave his approval to the bill that completed the process of revoking three agricultural laws.
The prime minister also said that the government would form a committee to work on a new framework for the price of minimum support (MSP).
