He said, “I would like to repeat the talk of Narendra Tomar. Even though the government and the farmers have not reached a consensus, we are keeping options before the farmers. They should discuss it. The distance between farmers and me is just one call.”

On behalf of the government, all the opposition parties have been assured that the government is ready to discuss all the issues including the laws related to agriculture. Earlier on the first day of the budget session, 20 opposition parties boycotted the President’s address, so the government is trying not to create a ruckus in the budget session.
Hanuman Beniwal will not join
National Democratic Party chief Hanuman Beniwal has announced that he will not participate in the all-party meeting. He said that he took this decision to show support for the farmers’ movement.
LJP chief Chirag Paswan will not be able to attend this meeting. It is being told that Chirag is ill. They have a sharp fever. He has also given a sample for the corona test. Apart from the all-party meeting, he will not be able to attend the NDA meeting either.
Before the commencement of the budget session of Parliament on Friday, before the address of President Ram Nath Kovind, the leaders of the opposition created a lot of uproars. Congress party MPs staged a sit-in protest at the statue of Mahatma Gandhi inside the Parliament complex over the withdrawal of agricultural laws. Congress leader Rahul Gandhi led the party MPs.
Earlier, Congress MP Adhir Ranjan Chaudhary had said about the boycott of the President’s address, “The boycott of the President’s address is not insulting him. We are standing with farmers and demanding the withdrawal of agricultural laws. This is the biggest reason for boycotting the President’s address. We will participate in the debate on the vote of thanks on the address.”
In view of the protests against the agricultural laws, there is a clear possibility of the budget session being rude. Opposition parties are preparing to surround the Modi government in the House on the farmers’ movement, India-China issue, the country’s declining economy, and WhatsApp chats leak case.
