Prime Minister Modi Has Decided to Remove Three Farm Laws

During his Friday speech to the nation, Prime Minister Narendra Modi stated that the government will repeal the contentious agriculture legislation. He added that the three farm laws were enacted after farmers, economists, and agricultural professionals asked that small farmers be empowered.

The Prime Minister also asked the farmers who were demonstrating to return home. PM Modi stated that when he was elected in 2014, he decided to put the welfare and development of farmers first. The majority of people are unaware that 80% of farmers are small-scale farmers with less than 2 hectares of land. He stated, “This piece of land is their survival.”

In his speech, he emphasized the government’s efforts to boost agricultural production. He claimed that rural markets had been strengthened and that many farmer-assistance programs had been implemented. Furthermore, financial allocation for farmers was boosted fivefold.
