A farmer has lodged a complaint with police against Union Minister Ajay Kumar Mishra for making "disparaging" remarks against farmers and their leader Rakesh Tikait.
Naresh Yadav, a resident of Harsaon village, has handed over a complaint addressed to the Additional SP (City-I) on Tuesday against Mr. Mishra for calling Mr. Tikait "do kaudi ka aadmi" (second-rate person) and comparing farmers with "dogs".
"I being a supporter of Mr. Tikait, register my strong resentment at the minister's statement. He has hurt the sentiments of the farmer community and I am feeling insulted," Mr. Yadav said in his missive.
