Shivraj Singh Chouhan Meets Amit Shah To Discuss Farmers' Issue

Agriculture Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan met Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Wednesday to discuss farmers issues. Thousands of farmers have been protesting and trying to enter the National Capital Region (NCR). It was reported that farmers from Punjab and Haryana are gearing up for a march to Delhi on December 6.

While farmers from Uttar Pradesh staged a protest in Noida earlier this week.

A day ago, Vice President Jagdeep Dhankad questioned the government that "why there has been no communication with farmers?"

The Opposition also grabbed the opportunity to target the government with both hands. Madhya Pradesh Congress President Jitu Patwari said: "The Vice President of India had raised questions over (Union Minister for Agriculture) Shivraj Singh Chouhan's way of working a few days ago in the House (Rajya Sabha). I will thank Jagdeep Dhankhar ji for showing the mirror to this government."

Farmers Read To March:

The farmers from Punjab and Haryana have announced that they will start marching towards the national capital if no communication between the Government and Farmers will be established.

Ambala Deputy Commissioner has reached out to farmer leaders, urging them to delay their march due to law and order concerns.

A letter was issued stating that Section 163 of BNS is in effect in Ambala. Farmers must obtain permission from Delhi Police before entering the city, and entry without permission will not be allowed.

Similar scenes were witnessed at Greater Noida's Zero Point on Wednesday after hundreds of villagers gathered to protest against local authorities.

They demand compensation and benefits for land previously acquired by the state government.

During Tuesday's agitation, Gautam Buddha Nagar Police detained over a hundred protesters, including women and elderly individuals, who were later released.
