New Delhi: Even as farmers and opposition parties continue to protest against the controversial farm bills, President Ram Nath Kovind on Sunday gave his assent for the three bills passed by the Parliament.
The three bills are Farmers' Produce Trade and Commerce (Promotion and Facilitation) Bill, 2020, Farmers (Empowerment and Protection) Agreement on Price Assurance and Farm Services Bill, 2020 and Essential Commodities (Amendment) Bill 2020.
These bills were passed by Parliament amid much drama during the recently concluded monsoon session.

Farmers have expressed apprehension that the Centre's farm reforms would pave a way for the dismantling of the minimum support price system, leaving them at the "mercy" of big companies.
On Friday, a near total "bandh" was observed in Punjab while farmers blocked several roads in Haryana.
The movement of trains remained suspended in Punjab on Saturday as farmers have extended their “rail roko" agitation by three days till September 29.

On Saturday, farmers squatted on the Amritsar-Delhi rail track and went shirtless in protest against the Bills.
They shouted slogans against the BJP-led Union government and demanded the rollback of the farm Bills which they described as “black laws".
The Farmers' Produce Trade and Commerce (Promotion and Facilitation) Bill, 2020 aims to permit the sale of agricultural produce outside the mandis regulated by the Agricultural Produce Marketing Committees (APMC) constituted by different state legislations.
