Winter Session: Youngest MP Dushyant Chautala rides tractor to Parliament

The 29-year-old MP from Hisar's Haryana told PTI that he rode a green-coloured tractor to Parliament in protest against tweaking of certain rules relating to the Motor Vehicles Act which, he claimed, would add to farmers' woes.

"I rode the vehicle to protest tweaking of rules under the Act declaring tractor as mere vehicles and not an agricultural vehicle. The change in rules will mean the selling price of the vehicle will go up, farmers will have to pay toll for using it to transport goods," he said.

Dushyant is the Youngest ever elected member of Parliament in the history of India and holds a record in 'Limca Book of Records'. Dushyant Chautala is youngest ever president of any sports governing body in India. He is president of Indian Table Tennis Federation of India.

Dushyant Chautala is the first Indian to have been conferred high civilian honour in the assembly of Arizona (USA).

Since 16 January 2013 Chautala has been active in the Haryana state politics.
