Congress-ruled States Asked To Pass Law to Override Centre's Farm Bills

Congress President Sonia Gandhi has asked the Congress-ruled states to introduce legal frameworks that will help to overrule the farm bills. A Congress' statement suggested the states to legislate under Article 254(2) of the Constitution that allows states to pass a law which, once approved by the President, can nullify the effect of the Centre's law. Reportedly, Punjab CM Captain Amarinder Singh has initiated the process in this regard.
