The Farm Laws Repeal Act, 2021

Section 5. Even though only a group of farmers are protesting against these laws, the Government has tried hard

In force · As amended up to 2026-08

5. Even though only a group of farmers are protesting against these laws, the Government has tried hard to sensitise the farmers on the importance of the Farm Laws and explain the merits through several meetings and other forums. Without taking away the existing mechanisms available to farmers, new avenues were provided for trade of their produce. Besides, farmers were free to select the avenues of their choice where they can get more prices for their produce without any compulsion. However, the operation of the aforesaid Farm laws has been stayed by the Hon'ble Supreme Court of India. During the COVID period, the farmers have worked hard to increase production and fulfil the needs of the nation. As we celebrate the 75th Year of Independence— "Azadi Ka Amrit Mahotsav", the need of the hour is to take everyone together on the path of inclusive growth and development.
