The farmers received a formal invite for the meeting from the Centre earlier this week. "We received a letter from the Union Agriculture Ministry in which we have been invited for the May 4 meeting. It has been mentioned in the letter that the representatives from the Centre as well as Punjab government will be present in the meeting," Dallewal said in a video message.
