Interview of the Governor who was against the agricultural law: Satyapal Malik said - I was openly with the farmers, PM came late but came well

Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Friday morning announced the withdrawal of all three controversial agriculture laws. The farmers did not expect this at all. Meghalaya Governor Satya Pal Malik, who was the most vocal against agricultural laws, was probably aware of this. Political experts say that the central government was using Malik as a safety valve. The government was working on a strategy to keep a road open from its own home for the return of the laws. This is the reason that despite the constant rhetoric against the government on agricultural laws, he remained on the constitutional post.

Satya Pal Malik had in October suggested the formula of MSP guarantee to end the farmers' agitation. He said that the government should keep all three laws, but MSP should make a law of guarantee. He had said that if the government did not listen to the farmers, they would have to face problems.

He said "First of all I would like to congratulate the Prime Minister. Then I want to congratulate the farmers that they carried out such a long agitation peacefully. It turned out good. Better late than never. it's in everyone's interest".
