Repeal of Farm Laws

The Repeal of Farm Laws refers to the Indian government’s decision in 2021 to cancel three new agricultural laws introduced in 2020. These laws aimed to reform how farmers sell crops, but many farmers believed they would favor large corporations at their expense, risking their livelihoods. After widespread protests and concerns, the government withdrew the laws to address farmers’ apprehensions and ensure their safety. This move was seen as a response to public pressure to protect farmers’ interests and maintain agricultural stability.
