"We have approved the center's revised draught in response to our demands regarding farmers' protests against three farm regulations. We'll meet again tomorrow as soon as we have a formal letter from the centre. The demonstrations are still going on "On Wednesday, farmer leader Gurnam Singh Charuni remarked.
