"No talks held so far. Tomorrow (December 7), we have a meeting of the Samyukta Kisan Morcha. Today (December 6), we had a meeting of the five-member committee on the MSP. The nine-member committee was called too so that transparent talks are held," said Gurnam Singh Charuni.
Notably, the Samyukta Kisan Morcha has formed a five-member panel for dialogue with the government on their pending demands, including MSP, compensation to kin of farmers who died during the agitation and withdrawal of cases against the protesters.
