Indian farmers participating in the ongoing protests have decided to temporarily pause their march towards Delhi after the government extended an offer for talks. The farmers, who have been demonstrating against new agricultural laws for over two months, have been marching towards the capital to intensify their protest.

The decision to halt the march came after the government expressed willingness to engage in discussions with the farmers to address their concerns. The farmers' leaders have welcomed the opportunity for dialogue and have agreed to hold talks with the government representatives.

The protests, which have seen thousands of farmers camping at the borders of Delhi, have garnered widespread attention both nationally and internationally.
