A meeting was held today between Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann and representatives of the Sanyukt Kisan Morcha at Punjab Bhawan in Chandigarh, which lasted for about two hours. However, no agreement was reached on any of the issues discussed during the meeting.
Farmer leader Joginder Singh Ugrahan announced that farmers would stage a firm protest in Chandigarh starting March 5. At the same time, farmer leader Balbir Singh Rajewal alleged that the Chief Minister had left the meeting in anger.
Meanwhile, Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann tweeted that he had appealed to the farmer organizations, urging them to reconsider their approach. He emphasized that blocking roads and trains or shutting down Punjab is not a solution to any issue, and such actions only cause hardship for the common people.
