Leave Ego, Scrap Farm Laws And Talk To Farmers: Amarinder Singh To Centre

"Bring new bills after discussion with farmers. Sit with them, talk to them and then bring a new bill. Why are you sitting on prestige and ego," Captain Amarinder Singh asked the Centre.

Punjab Chief Minister Amarinder Singh on Thursday urged the Centre to leave its ego, scrap the three farm legislations and bring in new laws after fresh discussions with farmers. Captain Singh was addressing the media on the completion of four years of his government. "Bring new bills after discussion with farmers. Sit with them, talk to them and then bring a new bill. Why are you sitting on prestige and ego," he asked the Centre. Referring to the amendment bills passed by the state assembly last year to "negate" the Centre''s farm laws, Captain Singh said, "We will go to the Supreme Court if the President does not give assent to the state amendment bills."
