Amid the ongoing farmers’ agitation against the farm laws, two senior leaders of the BJP on Tuesday met Prime Minister Narendra Modi in New Delhi.

Former Minister Surjit Kumar Jyani and Harjit Singh Grewal met the Prime Minister to discuss issues surrounding Punjab. A close aide of Mr. Jyani confirmed the meeting.

Both the leaders had been members of the BJP Kisan Coordination Committee. The Committee was entrusted with the job of interacting with farmers last year on the three farm bills, ahead of making them laws.
