With farmers’ protest entering day five, Punjab Kisan Mazdoor Sangharsh Committee leader Sarvan Singh Pandher on Saturday said that everyone was now looking forward towards the meeting scheduled on Sunday and hoped for some good news and the ball was in the Centre’s court.

While addressing the press on Saturday, he said that the government must take the decision on MSP and loan waiver of the farmers and other demands.

If the government agrees to our demands here itself the issue will be resolved, and for the meeting on Sunday the farmer leaders will go with a positive mind and hope that something will be done and decisions be taken by the government for the farmers and the farm laborers.

He also said that still we have not stepped back from our program for going towards Delhi, and going to Delhi was only to place our demands before the Centre government.

Meanwhile, Bharatiya Kisan Union (Charuni) on Saturday carried out a tractor march in Haryana’s Kurukshetra and some other places in solidarity with the farmers protesting at the Punjab- Haryana’s Shambhu and Khanauri borders.

The protest entered day five on Saturday, as the farmers in support of the call given by The Samyukta Kisan Morcha (Non Political) and Kisan Mazdoor Morcha supporters continued to stay put at the Shambhu border at Ambala.

Reportedly, more supporters and families of the farmers at Shambhu joined them in solidarity near the Shambhu border.

The fourth round of talks between the Centre and the farmer unions are set to take place on Sunday evening.

Meanwhile, Union Minister for Information and Broadcasting Anurag Thakur had on Friday said that the third round of talks between farmers’ unions and the centre was meaningful, and both sides have scheduled the next round to take place on Sunday, he had said.
