“How can my government go against the interests of the farmers when it was the first in the country to move the amendment laws in the Vidhan Sabha to annul the draconian Farm Laws of the Central Government?” asked the Chief Minister, asserting that as far as the central laws were concerned, his government’s stand against them had been clear and consistent.

“This is not the time to play politics but to put all our energies into protecting the life of every human being,” he said.
