Ready To Talk If Centre Invites, No Change In Demands: Farmer Leader

Amid a stalemate in the Centre-farmer talks, Bharatiya Kisan Union (BKU) leader Rakesh Tikait on Sunday said that the protesting farmers are willing to hold discussions with the Centre.

Thousands of farmers from Punjab, Haryana and Uttar Pradesh have been camping outside the national capital for the past few months, protesting the Centre’s latest agriculture legislations.

So far, 11 rounds of talks have taken place between the Centre and the protesting farm unions. The last meeting occurred on January 22.
