He was associated with BKU (Sindhpur) Union and jointly owned 3 acres of landholding with his brothers in his village.

“ Nirmal’s son, Hardeep Singh, who reached Bahadurgarh on Monday morning, said,”I find Haryana and the Centre government responsible for this incident. They are forcing farmers to sit on dharnas for the past many months. My chachaji got sick after getting wet repeatedly and could not take care of himself at morcha due to which he caught cold and died. I am in deep shock. We don’t value a human life in this country.””
