New Delhi:
The second day of
Kisan Sansad in Delhi s Jantar Mantar saw a 37-year-old man acting as the agriculture minister, who subsequently resigned after failing to answer questions related to the farmers issues.
Thousands of farmers have been seeking a repeal of the three farm laws that were enacted last year.
Ravneet Singh Brar, from Punjab s Muktsar with an MBA degree, was chosen to play the role of the
Krishi Mantri (Agriculture Minister) at the
Kisan Sansad for a day, which he felt was a big opportunity since he belongs to a family of farmers.
He has been an active participant in the farmer s protest at the Singhu border since the very beginning and is also the spokesperson of Bharatiya Kisan Union (Kadian).
