Centre agrees to talks, farmers call off Khanauri sit-in

The Centre has agreed to hold talks with protesting farmers, leading to the lifting of the Khanauri border blockade on Wednesday. Union Minister Manohar Lal Khattar will meet farmer leaders in Delhi on September 4, with a possible subsequent meeting with Agriculture Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan. The Samyukta Kisan Morcha (non-political) has postponed its planned march to Delhi pending the talks.
