Meanwhile, to end the deadlock, a meeting was held between the government and farmer organizations in New Delhi. This meeting of the 9th round was also inconclusive.

During the meeting, Agriculture Minister Narendra Singh Tomar appealed to the farmers leaders to bring flexibility in their stance. Explain that the protesting farmers are demanding the withdrawal of three new agricultural laws from the central government. At the same time, the government is talking about amending the law.
After the meeting, Union Agriculture Minister Narendra Singh Tomar said that the 9th round of talks with the farmers union took place. All three laws were discussed. The Essential Commodities Act was discussed in detail. Attempts were made to address their doubts. The union and the government decided that there would be discussion again on January 19 at 12 noon.
What did the farmer leader say after the meeting?
The Indian Farmers Union spokesman said after talking to the government, “We will talk to the government only. 2 is the only point. 3 laws of agriculture be back and talk on MSP. We will not go to the committee of the court, we will talk to the government itself. ”Another leader said that no solution was found, neither on agricultural laws nor on MSP. Will meet again on 19 January.
Before the lunch break during the meeting, Food Minister Piyush Goyal responded to the farmers’ questions on the changes made in the Essential Commodities Act. Some farmer leaders did not want to hear Piyush Goyal’s answer as he said that there can be no dialogue except withdrawal of the law. However some other farmers were in favor of listening to the talks of the government.
On January 12, the Supreme Court had stayed the implementation of three new agricultural laws. Also, the court constituted a four-member committee.
These include the president of the Bharatiya Kisan Union, Bhupinder Singh Mann, the president of the Shetkari organization Maharashtra, Anil Ghanwat, Pramod Kumar Joshi of the International Food Policy Research Institute and agricultural economist Ashok Gulati.
