Tell us that farmers have been protesting on the borders of Delhi since November last year in protest against three agricultural laws. The central government has now repealed all the three laws on the demand of farmers, yet the farmers have not ended the agitation. The Congress, on the other hand, has supported the kisan movement from the very beginning. The Congress has been raising this issue in Parliament. There have also been allegations from the ruling party that the opposition is surrounding the government by placing a gun on the shoulders of farmers.
