#FarmersParliament was conducted successfully right outside the Parliament inspite of hot sun, rain & water logging, no comfortable chairs/mic.
Police frisked them as if farmers were criminals while MPs with criminal records get security & pass laws.#KisanSansad_vs_ModiSansad

On July 6, a no-confidence motion was tabled in the House and it was emphatically debated for two days.

The farmers said that the Modi government has failed to check the skyrocketing prices of petroleum products and price rise of essential commodities. During the pandemic, it bulldozed the antifarmer and anti-worker laws through the Parliament and curtailed the democratic rights and civil liberties of the people guaranteed under the Constitution.
As a result, the Sansad observed that the democratic space has started shrinking to which the ongoing farmer agitation and Kisan Parliament have played a significant and tremendous role to regain lost space.
