New laws give farmers more choices, but govt open to dialogue to improve them: Gadkari

Nitin Gadkari has said the Centre is open to dialogue with protesting farm unions to improve the new agri laws. The minister for highways, road transport and MSMEs, however, defended the provisions on contract farming, saying they increased farmers’ choices in getting higher incomes.
The farmers had the right to choose where they wanted to sell their produce and at what price, he told TOI.
