The Central government on Wednesday agreed to farmers' demands giving its nod on key issues raised by them, including amendments in the three contentious farms laws that were the first and biggest issue driving the ongoing farmers' protest.

The government communicated its stand through a written draft proposal to the farmers in which it agreed to two main amendments regarding the Minimum Support Price (MSP) and Agricultural Produce Market Committee (APMC) but rejected their demand to repeal three farm laws enacted in September during the Monsoon Session of Parliament-- a move to break the impasse which has been going on for the last 14 days on the national capital's borders with thousands of farmers sitting on roads crippling the supply chain.
