Centre-farmers talks remain inconclusive after 5 rounds, next meet on Dec 9

Talks between the government and protesting farmers remained inconclusive on Saturday even after five rounds of discussions as union leaders stuck to their demand for the repeal of the new farm laws and went on a 'maun vrat' seeking a clear 'yes or no' reply, forcing the Centre to call for another meeting on December 9 to resolve the deadlock. Speaking to media after the meeting, Union Agriculture Minister Narendra Singh Tomar assured farmers once again that the MSP will continue and that they should keep faith in the Modi government as whatever it will do, will be in benefit for them.
