Speaking to reporters in Gadchiroli district of Maharashtra, the former Union agriculture minister said the Centre should restart talks with the agitating farmers and "take some more people in confidence".

No solution can be found if farmers insisted that their demands be accepted completely, the NCP leader said.

"At the same time, if the government keeps prestige concerns aside and shows readiness to amend the laws where there is scope, then I think dialogue can be started and some way out of this situation can be found," he said.

Bhartiya Kisan Union Leader Rakesh Tikait on November 1 had said the Centre has time till November 26 to repeal the contentious laws, after which farmer protests around Delhi would be intensified.
