We thanked all farmer leaders, including those who support our proposal for suspension of laws and those against it... We should remain hopeful; let's wait till tomorrow to hear farmer unions' final decision.

- Union Agriculture Minister Narendra Singh Tomar

We told farmers to come up with their own proposal, other than repeal, if they have anything better than our offer... I don't want to speculate, but we're hopeful farmer unions will consider positively our proposal to suspend laws and find a solution.

- Union Agriculture Minister Narendra Singh Tomar

Govt always maintained it is ready to consider alternatives to repeal. Our proposal is in interest of farmers and of country.

- Union Agriculture Minister Narendra Singh Tomar

We asked them to reconsider our proposal as it is in the interest of farmers and the country. We asked them to convey their decision tomorrow.

Talks remained inconclusive as farmers' welfare was not at the heart of talks from the unions' side. I am sad about it. Farmers unions said that they only want the repeal of the laws despite the govt asking for alternatives.
