Rahul Gandhi, Leader of the Opposition in the Lok Sabha, met with a delegation of farmers on Wednesday to discuss their demand for a legal guarantee for the Minimum Support Price (MSP). Gandhi assured the farmers that the Opposition alliance would pressure the central government to ensure this guarantee. He criticized the initial denial of entry to the Parliament Complex for the farmer leaders, which was later resolved. The Samyukt Kisan Morcha and Kisan Mazdoor Morcha announced intensified protests, including a nationwide tractor rally on August 15 and additional rallies in Punjab and Haryana.
