The Samyukt Kisan Morcha, an umbrella organization of farmer unions, has rejected the government's proposal of a 5-year MSP contract for buying pulses, maize, and cotton crops.
The farmers are demanding guaranteed procurement of all 23 crops based on the C2+50% MSP formula.
They have also criticized the lack of transparency in the talks and have emphasized the need to fulfill pre-election promises.
The standoff between the farmers and the government is continuing amid ongoing negotiations.
The farmers' union is likely to continue their protests until their demands are met. It is unclear what the next steps will be in the negotiations.
