Bengaluru, Feb 10 : Farmers of Jammu and Kashmir, Ladakh, Punjab, Haryana, Uttarakhand, Uttar Pradesh, and Rajasthan were enthusiastically interacting with horticultural scientists via a virtual platform on Tuesday.
This was in contrast with a section of farmers, especially from Punjab, Haryana and Uttar Pradesh, staging a sit-in protest along Delhi borders for the last two months demanding the union government to repeal three contentious laws that were passed last year.
This was the highlight of the second day of hybrid five day National Horticulture Fair-2021 that is organised by the ICAR-Indian Institute of Horticultural Research (IIHR), Bengaluru, here.
