The government had prepared a 22-page proposal, including changes in agricultural laws, and sent it to the farmers. The farmers out rightly rejected the proposal given by the government. The farmers instead said that the movement would be intensified now

The farmers said that all the national highways including Jaipur-Delhi and Agra-Delhi highways will be jammed. Farmers’ leaders have threatened to call for another nationwide strike on December 14.

Farmer leader Shiv Kumar Kakka terming the proposal of the government an insult. He said that if the three farm laws are not scrapped, the farmers will block all the roads leading to Delhi one by one.
