Prime Minister Narendra Modi should understand the difference between a model act and the three new agri laws, the NCP said on Monday, hours after the PM cited former Union agriculture minister Sharad Pawar''s support for farm reforms to buttress his point on the U-turn by the Opposition in the Rajya Sabha.

NCP's national spokesperson and Maharashtra minority affairs minister Nawab Malik also said the Sharad Pawar-led party was not against reforms, but demanded a repeal of the three contentious agri marketing laws.
