Democracy is all about elected governments bowing down to people’s wishes and in that sense the decision taken by PM Modi is praiseworthy, writes VS Pandey.

Prime Minister Modi, in his address to the nation, announced the withdrawal of the three contentious farm laws and apologised to all those who had suffered because of the same. Farmers, basically from the states of Punjab, Haryana, and western Uttar Pradesh have been agitating for the past year demanding the withdrawal of the three farm laws. The farmers have been organizing dharna on all the roads leading to the national capital, Delhi and repeated attempts by the central government to resolve the issue amicably failed to bear any fruit as the farmers wanted the rescinding of the three farm laws as a precondition for any fruitful talks to solve the problems faced by the farmers.

Although the operation of these farm laws were put on hold by the apex court long ago but that did not lead to any reconciliation between the government and the agitating farmers. The government always maintained that it is willing to discuss everything except the scrapping of the three farm laws. It seemed that the government was in no mood to take back these farm laws, come what may. From time to time, those in favor of these farm laws argued that the reforms-driven image of the Modi government will take a beating if it succumbs to the pressure mounted by agitating farmers. It was also said that these farm laws were going to revolutionize the Agri sector and benefit the farmers immensely. But the agitating farmers were not convinced and presented their side quite forcefully resulting in a long stalemate between the two sides. Finally today the PM announced the withdrawal of the three farm laws and said that although his government had promulgated the farm laws only in the interest of farmers and he sincerely believed that these laws were going to change farmers lives for the better but unfortunately the government failed to convince the farmer's community at large regarding the benefits of these farm laws. In his address, he apologised to all those who suffered due to this. He also announced the setting up of a committee consisting of the representatives of the central government, state governments, agriculture experts, farmers representatives, etc. to look into the other specific issues raised by the farmers. He promised the farmers that he will do everything possible to make their lives better and prosperous.
