A week-long standoff between farmers and the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP)-led government in Haryana ended today after the fourth round of discussions. The state government assured that an inquiry committee will be set up to probe the August 28 Karnal baton-charge incident and the role of IAS officer Ayush Sinha, after which farmers' leaders called off their protest.
