Barring ink used to write them, what was black in farm laws, asks VK Singh
Barring the ink used to write them, what was black in farm laws, Union minister General V K Singh (retd) asked farmers on Saturday.
The Union Minister lamented the insistence of one of sections of farmers forcing a rollback of the farm laws. “I asked a farmer leader to tell me what is black (in the farm laws). You people say this is a black law. I asked them what is black barring the ink (used),” the former Army chief told reporters here, recounting his interaction with a farmer leader.

“They said we endorse your view but these (laws) are still black,” said General VK Singh (retd).
“In farmers’ organisations, there is a fight for supremacy among themselves. These people cannot think about the benefits to small farmers,” he alleged.
