The decision was taken after the Centre handed over a revised proposal, with promises of forming a committee on Minimum Support Price (MSP) and withdrawing cases against them immediately.

Soon after the Centre’s revised proposal came, the Samyukta Kisan Morcha, the umbrella body of the farmers’ union spearheading the protests, huddled into a meeting to chart out the future course of action.

Following the revocation of the law, the Centre had come up with a proposal that was accepted by the farmers. Based on their demand, the Centre has come out with the same in writing.

Meanwhile, the farmers protesting at the Singhu border have started removing their tents. They were also seen exchanging sweets.
