Farmers Refuse Punjab Involvement in MSP Talks with Centre
Farmers, represented by SKM, are still fighting for a guaranteed minimum price for their crops.
They want to talk to the central government about this but don't want the Punjab government involved because they feel the Punjab government acted unfairly.
A big meeting is planned in Tamil Nadu to discuss this issue further.
They are also upset about legal cases against farmers in Haryana and are threatening further action if these cases aren't dropped.
They are also against the Punjab government's land acquisition plans.
SKM (non-political) insists on direct talks with the Centre regarding MSP.
Talks will only occur if Punjab ministers and officials are excluded.
Jagjit Singh Dallewal stated the Punjab government ended their movement deceptively.
The morcha plans a Kisan Mahapanchayat in Coimbatore on July 5 to discuss MSP.
SKM will announce future programs if Haryana doesn't withdraw cases against farmers.
