India's new farm laws have "potential to represent a significant step forward" for reforms in the agriculture sector, the International Monetary Fund has said.

The IMF weighing in on the three new farm laws comes on a day when Union Ministers and farmers are set to meet for a ninth time to find a solution to the demands of farmers, who among other conditions want the laws withdrawn entirely.

Thousands of farmers, mostly from Punjab and Haryana, have been camping at state border points near Delhi, demanding a complete repeal of the three farm laws and legal guarantee of minimum support price for their crops.

The government has said it was ready to discuss the laws clause by clause, but the farmers have stuck to their demand of complete repeal of the laws.
