Farmers are still agitating because ministers of the Modi government have failed to present any "alternative" to the three new agri laws or the MSP, despite 11 rounds of talks," Samuykta Kisan Morcha (SKM) leader Darshan Pal said in a video message on Wednesday.

Responding to PM Modi’s calling of protesters 'andolanjivis', Pal said that union leaders have only been raising the "genuine" issues of the farmers. "The truth is that we are struggling on genuine issues of farmers for the past six months and have not raised any issue or demand beyond it," said the SKM leader.

He further claimed that it is "absolutely clear" that the new laws will finish government mandis while private mandis will have monopoly
