The Congress has been demanding an immediate repeal of the three farm laws and will press for a law to legalise MSP for farmers, besides providing compensation to families of farmers who died during the year-long protests against the farm laws at Delhi borders.

The Farm Laws Repeal Bill was introduced and passed in the Lok Sabha on Monday amid sloganeering by the Opposition who were demanding a discussion on the bill. However, no discussion was held on the bill in the House.
