Farmers headed to Delhi for 8th round of talks with Centre, both sides hope for resolution

The protesting farmers who have been camping at the Delhi borders for over 40 days, are now headed to Delhi’s Vigyan Bhawan for the eighth round of talks with the Centre on Friday. Seven rounds of talks with the government on the farm reform laws have so far failed to bring any consensus. Hannan Mollah, General Secretary, All India Kisan Sabha, says, “The minister yesterday categorically declared that repeal of farm laws not accepted. I don't know what will happen during the discussions today. Anyway, we hope for the best and prepare for the worst.”
