PM Modi in his address spoke about the ongoing massive farmers protest in the national capital against the three farm bills enacted by the central government earlier this year.
"The agriculture reforms that have taken place are exactly what farmer bodies and even Opposition have been asking over the years. Government of India is always committed to farmer welfare and we will keep assuring the farmers and addressing their concerns," PM Modi said in his address.
"People who are sitting in the Opposition & misleading farmers today were in the favour of these farm reforms during their govt. They could not make a decision during their govt. Today when the nation has taken a historical step then these people are misleading farmers," Prime Minister added.
