Narendra Singh Tomar: Treading between farmer protest, bypoll preparation

When Tomar was made agriculture minister, many people thought there would be no ripples. They were right - until recently with the farm reform Bill

Guess who hasn’t said a word about the three farm Bills that the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) government pushed through in Parliament over which farmers in large swathes of north India are in an uproar? Newest BJP entrant and Rajya Sabha MP Jyotiraditya Scindia.
 
Scindia’s views on the Bills are not known. But here’s the thing — until a few months ago, his biggest political adversary in the Gwalior-Guna-Morena region was Narendra Singh Tomar, Union agriculture minister, who piloted the farm Bills. Tomar was moved to adjoining Morena in the 2019 Lok Sabha election. He won that as well.
