Farmers’ protest: Only oral assurances from government, say farmers -Priscilla Jebaraj

-The Hindu

Agriculture Ministry officials say no timeline reached to amend the ordinance on stubble burning.

Despite reaching an agreement on exempting farmers from the penal provisions of stubble burning under an ordinance on air quality in the capital, the Centre does not plan to take action until all other issues with protesting farmers groups are also resolved. Asked about the timeline to amend the ordinance, Agriculture Ministry officials noted that only an “in-principle” agreement has been reached during Wednesday’s negotiations with protesting farmer leaders.

“Since the talks are still going on, once everything is finalised, then the timeline, etcetera, may come up for discussion. It was an in-principle decision that two of their demands were acceptable to the government,” a senior Agriculture Ministry official told The Hindu. “The modalities and timeline will be as per the final agreement. Once everything gets finalised, only then we will do it.”
