TIL Desk/National/New Delhi/ An umbrella body of 40 farmer unions protesting against the new agri laws wrote to the Centre on Wednesday, asking it to stop holding ‘parallel talks’ with other farmer bodies over the contentious legislations.
The letter by ‘Sanyukt Kisan Morcha’, which represents farmer bodies mostly from Punjab, comes against the backdrop of the government holding talks with several farmers organisations from different states who the Centre claimed have extended their support to the new agriculture laws.
In a letter to Union Agriculture and Farmers’ Welfare Joint Secretary Vivek Aggarwal, the Morcha said the Centre should also stop ‘defaming’ the ongoing protests being held at several Delhi border points against the three farm laws.
