Farmers in no mood to relent. What's the solution now?

Farmers are in no mood to compromise even as the government has softened its stance on some demands to include in the new farm laws. Farmer leaders have clearly stated that the agitation will continue till the farm laws are repealed and the MSP is legalised. Thousands of farmers have laid siege to Delhi's border points mostly from Punjab and Haryana. Farmers from other states like Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan, Maharashtra, Chhattisgarh, Telangana, and others have not extended support to the agitation because they see no reason to oppose the three new laws. This silence is surprising and raises multiple questions on the ongoing protest.
