Arrogance relents to satyagrah of nation's providers: Rahul Gandhi

He also shared a past tweet of his in which he had said the Narendra Modi government would be forced to repeal take back the farm laws.

Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Friday said arrogance has succumbed to the satyagrah of the nation's providers. Congratulating protesting farmers on “victory against injustice”, the former Congress president wrote in Hindi on Twitter, “Jai Hind. Jai Hind ka kisan!”

He also shared a past tweet of his in which he had said the Narendra Modi government would be forced to repeal take back the farm laws. “Mark my words, the Govt will have to take back the anti-farm laws,” he had written in a tweet on January 14 along with a clipping talking about the same.

His statement came minutes after Prime Minister Narendra Modi, in an address to the nation, announced that all three farms laws against which farmers have been protesting for about a year will be repealed. He also urged the farmers to withdraw their stir.

Stating that whatever he did so far as PM was in the interest of the country, Modi said a new phase from today. “We will make a new committee with state and central representatives experts which will work on a new framework.”
