New Delhi: Two days after Prime Minister Narendra Modi made an announcement that the central government will scrap the three farm laws, Samajwadi Party (SP) on Sunday targeted Bhartiya Janta Party (BJP) alleging that the Union government will bring back the three agrarian laws once the assembly elections are over.

The statement came after BJP leader Sakshi Maharaj and Rajasthan governor Kalraj Mishra declared on Saturday that the Centre has abolished the agriculture regulations after understanding the present sentiment of the farmers but bills can be re-drafted later if needed.

Speaking to ANI, Rajasthan Governor Kalraj Mishra said, "Govt tried to explain to farmers the benefits of Farm Laws but the farmers were adamant on getting them repealed. Govt felt that it should be taken back & re-drafted later if needed but right now they should repeal as farmers are demanding."

While Sakshi Maharaj said the legislation had nothing to do with forthcoming five states assembly elections, adding, that the repealed laws "can be re-drafted."

PM Modi on Friday said that the centre will repeal the three agriculture legislations during the winter session of the parliament which is scheduled to commence on November 29, 2021.  “Today, I have come to tell you, the whole country, that we have decided to withdraw all three agricultural laws," he said.

Since November 26, 2020, farmers, mostly from Punjab, Haryana and Uttar Pradesh, have been protesting at Delhi’s borders demanding the repeal of the laws. After several rounds of talks between the government and farmer unions failed to end the protests, the Supreme Court stayed the implementation of three farm laws.

PM Modi also announced the formation of a committee comprising representatives of the central government, state governments, farmers, agricultural scientists and agricultural economists to ensure decisions on various issues related to agriculture, including making the minimum support price (MSP), are more “effective and transparent.
