Prime Minister Narendra Modi's announcement that the Centre would repeal the controversial Farm Laws is a huge and unprecedented victory for the agriculturists, democracy and the entire nation, DMK MP Kanimozhi has said.
Speaking to reporters here on Friday after participating in the cooperative week celebrations, Ms. Kanimozhi said the DMK and its allies, even before returning to power in last May, were extending unstinted support to the farmers protesting against the controversial Farm Laws, which had been enacted "with the prime objective of helping the corporate while decimating the growers". Hence, on coming to power, the DMK had passed resolution against these laws in Tamil Nadu Assembly.
Mr Modi, who was unable to face the stiff resistance of the farmers, had been compelled to withdraw the Farm Laws, which was a huge and unprecedented victory for the farming community, democracy and India, she felt.
