The Samyukta Kisan Morcha (SKM) on Wednesday warned the central government to "not test their patience, initiate the dialogue and accept the demands".

More than 470 farmers have been martyred in the farmers' movement, the SKM said in a statement and added that the government's attitude shows how inhuman and careless it is towards its own citizens, the ''anna daatas''.  The statement also read that if the government cares about its farmers and wants their welfare, then it should initiate dialogue with the farmers and accepts their demands.

Thousands of farmers have been camping at three Delhi border points for almost six months, demanding repeal of the contentious farm laws and a legal guarantee for the minimum support Price (MSP).
