BJP leader Harjeet Singh Grewal says protesting farmers were invited to Delhi, but farmers say they only got 'feelers'. Passenger & goods train services to Punjab were suspended in October.
The trains were stopped after farmers launched a 'rail roko' stir over farm laws, but Punjab CM has assured Shah that protesters have cleared train tracks.
The protest by farmers in Punjab began as a fight against the farm laws but has since galvanised as a campaign against corporates that extends to toll plazas, petrol pumps and malls.
Amarinder Singh had sought an appointment with the President Wednesday to seek assent to bills recently passed by the state in a bid to negate the Centre's new farm laws.
Raninder Singh was earlier questioned in the FEMA case in 2016 and was asked to explain the alleged movement of funds to Switzerland and a trust in the British Virgin Islands.
The protesting farmers have decided to suspend their rail roko until 4 November, in response to an appeal from Punjab CM Amarinder Singh to allow goods trains to run.
