Protesting farmers postpone 'what-next' meet to Nov 27, existing programmes not to be affected

The SKM's meeting to decide the farmers' future course of action, now that the three farm laws have been repealed, has been postponed to November 27. Meanwhile, their pre-planned programmes will be held as per schedule.

The Samyukta Kisan Morcha (SKM), an umbrella body of farmers' unions that has been leading the protest against the Centre's three farm laws, was scheduled to hold an important meeting at Singhu border on Sunday to decide what to do next. This comes after PM Modi announced on Friday that the Centre has decided to repeal the laws.

However, the meeting has now been postponed to November 27, after news came in that the Union Cabinet is likely to approve the decision to repeal the laws on Wednesday.
