The new agricultural legislations that came into force in September, have been introduced by the central government. Claiming that the agricultural laws will bring major reforms in the agriculture sector, the Centre said the laws aim to remove the middlemen and establish free market. 

On the same day, President Ram Nath Kovind said strong words in the favour of the three new agricultural laws stating their benefits.

However, the protesting farmers have raised comcerns over the subsequent elimination of Minimum Support Price that protected vulnerable farmers and destroys the APMC mandi system. Therefore, the farmers have demanded the laws be repealed as the legislations could leave the farmers susceptible to exploitation by big corporates.
