The Punjab government on Tuesday moved a resolution against the farm bill in the state assembly. The resolution was moved by Punjab Chief Minister Amarinder Singh on the second day of a special assembly session here over the new farm laws.

Addressing the members of the House, CM Amarinder Singh said: “Draft resolution states that Farm laws are against constitution (Entry 14 List-II), which mentions agriculture as a state subject & these legislations are a direct attack to encroach upon functions & powers of states, as enshrined in constitution.”

The state opposition had on Monday slammed the Captain Amarinder Singh government for not tabling the Bills on the first day of the special Assembly session. Meanwhile, the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) MLAs staged a sit-in protest inside the Assembly for not receiving copies of the proposed legislation to be tabled in the special session of Punjab Vidhan Sabha against the Central farm laws.
