Pune: Social activist Anna Hazare has cancelled his planned fast against the three farm laws. He announced his decision on Friday in the presence of senior BJP leader and former Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis. “I have been raising the farmers’ issue for three years… they die by suicide because they don’t get the right prices for their crops…the government has decided to increase the MSP (Minimum Support Price) by 50 percent—I have got the letter,” he told reporters. “Since the Centre decided to work on these 15 issues (his demands for farmers), I have cancelled tomorrow’s fast,” he added. Earlier this month, Hazare had written to PM Narendra Modi, saying he would launch the “last hunger strike” of his life by January end.
