In response to the Prime Minsiter Narendra Modi\u2019s announcement that his government was just a phone call away for talks with farmers, the farmer leader Naresh Tikait on Sunday replied that the protesting farmers will honour the dignity of prime minister but are also committed to protect their own self-respect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Addressing the protesting farmers at Ghazipur border, Tikait said the government should release farmers who have arrested by the Delhi Police in connection with clashes between the protesting farmers and cops. He also requested the government to prepare an environment conducive for talks. A respectful solution should be reached and the farmers will never agree to anything under pressure, he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

His remarks come in the backdrop of 84 protesting farmers who have arrested after several clashes between farmers and the police in which one protester died during the clash in central Delhi and several policemen were injured.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Earlier in the day, Prime Minister Narendra Modi spoke about the incident on his monthly radio programme \u2018Mann Ki Baat\u2019 and said that the nation was shocked to witness the insult of the Tricolour on January 26.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Delhi Police has registered nearly 40 cases and made over 84 arrests in connection with the violence and vandalism.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
