Govt passes bill to repeal farm laws, avoids discussion demand by Opposition

The repeal of the three farm laws, against which the farmers have been protesting at the Delhi border for a year, just took minutes in Parliament Monday. Passed by the Lok Sabha in the morning, the bill was passed by the Rajya Sabha in the afternoon just minutes after resuming post-lunch.

As the Opposition demanded a discussion, trying to corner the government, which is already on the backfoot by backpedalling on the bills, the government said since the Opposition has been demanding the repeal of laws and the government is now ready for it, a discussion is not needed.

Deputy Chairman Harivansh moved immediately on the suggestion and took up the Farm Laws Repeal Bill 2021 to be passed through a voice vote. The Opposition protested but the protests were ignored and the bill was passed. Harivansh adjourned the House for 30 minutes immediately after it.

Meanwhile, Harivansh also did not allow Leader of Opposition in the House Mallikarjun Kharge to speak before Union Minister Narendra Singh Tomar could move the motion to pass the bill, to which certain Union Ministers objected. However, later Kharge was allowed to speak for a few minutes.
