According to an SP press release, Chaudhary said: “It was for the first time that a government has not offered tributes to farmers who lost their lives during their agitation.” Chaudhary also met the family of Kashmira Singh of Pasiapur village in Rampur who also lost life during the ongoing agitation of farmers.

Jayant too pays tribute MEERUT: RLD leader Jayant Choudhary on Thursday supported the demand for a judicial enquiry into the death of Navreet Singh, who died during Kisan Tractor Parade in Delhi on January 26.
