Sukhbir Badal: Voice vote shows govt unwilling to listen, inside or outside parliament

Amid massive uproar by opposition members, the Rajya Sabha on September 20 passed the Farmer's Produce Trade and Commerce (Promotion and Facilitation) Bill, 2020, and the Farmers (Empowerment and Protection) Agreement of Price Assurance and Farm Services Bill, 2020.

On Sept 20, Shiromani Akali Dal chief Sukhbir Singh Badal had urged the President not to sign the farm Bills and also requested him that they be returned to Parliament for reconsideration.

Ahead of his meeting with the President, Badal spoke to Hindustan Timesโ€™ Sunetra Choudhury on the latest episode of On The Record.

โ€œOn behalf of the farmers, we are requesting the President to reconsider the bill and send it back to the Parliament and let it be properly debated there,โ€ said Badal.
