New Delhi, Dec 5 (TIWN) Naresh Sirohi, till recently national vice president of the Bharatiya Janata Party Kisan Morcha, has made five important suggestions to the government to resolve the farmers' agitation. He has said that the three agricultural laws of the Union government are going to affect not only farmers but also the country's entire population. It is necessary to find a way out of the impasse that benefits everybody concerned.

Sirohi said that after the changes in the agriculture sector at the global level in the 1990s, the three farm laws framed at present should be considered as a major initiative for agricultural reform. "These laws will affect all the people, including farmers, large corporate houses engaged in agriculture, the food processing industry, wholesalers, average retailers and even consumers," he told IANS.  He said, "These three laws will not just affect the retail market of about about 300 million tonnes of foodgrains, 32 billion tonnes of fruits and vegetables, about 19 crore tonnes of milk produced in the country, it will also affect the entire 12,000 billion rupee strong retail economy."
