TW Newsdesk, Nov 24: The Union Cabinet on Wednesday approved a bill to repeal the contentious three farm laws, Information and Broadcasting Minister Anurag Thakur informed during a press briefing.
The new bill will now be introduced in the Lok Sabha for passage in the upcoming Winter session of Parliament beginning November 29.
Last week, Prime Minister Narendra Modi had announced the repeal of the three contentious agriculture laws that were enacted on September 17, 2020.
“Today, while apologising to the countrymen, I want to say with a sincere and pure heart that perhaps there must have been some deficiency in our efforts, due to which we could not explain the truth like the light of the lamp to some farmers,” Prime Minister Modi had said during his address to the nation.
