Union steel minister Birender Singh shared his experience, especially the difference between his Congress years and now his role as a minister in the NDA government; India’s steel industry; the menace of mob lynching; his home-state Haryana and the dry wit of the people from the state. In between, the BJP leader also cracked a few jokes.
