The demand of the farmers for the repeal of the new farm laws finds an echo in the hearts of the people (Page 1, “Veterans to return 25,000 medals”, December 13). This is an agitation of the farmers, by the farmers and for the farmers, pure and simple. The central issue arising from the new pieces of legislation is that of the corporatisation of agriculture. This fact cannot be obscured by raising false hopes of a better deal. The Narendra Modi government has a parliamentary majority and popular support. Still, it will do well to show empathy for farmers and repeal the contentious laws.
