According to source privy to the meeting, Golan said Centre should accept farmers’ demands as they feed 135 crore Indians and now the entire Opposition is standing by them. Golan also justified the decision of Sangwan in which he had resigned from the post of chairman. Gonder said the farmers are sitting on roads for the past 20 days despite severe cold adding the shortcomings (in the laws) should be removed. Two other independent MLAs, Rakesh Daultabad (Badshahpur) and Nayan Pal Rawat (Prithla), were also present in the meeting.
The luncheon meeting by Independent MLAs over farmers’ issue assumes significance as majority of the ruling BJP’s ally JJP have already openly come out in support of the farmers protesting against the Centre’s new farm laws.
