Taking to Twitter, Rahul Gandhi termed the farm laws as “anti-agriculture laws” and shared a quote by Mahatma Gandhi -- "In a gentle way, you can shake the world."

"Once again, I appeal to the Modi government that the anti-agriculture laws be taken back immediately," Rahul Gandhi said in a tweet in Hindi.

The Congress MP also condemned the violence that broke out on Tuesday and sought repeal of the three farm laws in "national interest".
