Thakur's gesture of extending an invitation for discussion has been accepted by the wrestling community and is being seen as a step towards resolving the ongoing issues. He mentioned n his Twitter handle that "the government is willing to have a discussion with the wrestlers on their issues, " as a result he had invited the wrestlers on his residence for the same issue.

Punia and the farmer leader Rakesh Tikait arrived at Thakur's house before Malik, who had earlier stated that the decision to hold talks would only be made after consideration.
