Earlier, DK Suresh and Kunigal Member of Parliament Ranganath had bought agricultural products from farmers in Bengaluru Rural and distributed among people.

This move from Congress came after the nation-wide lockdown which led to shutdown of Agricultural produce market committee, and markets.

Many farmers have been dumping the agricultural products as they are unable to sell the products.
