He is a member of the assembly committee on national equality and the committee on establishing the equal authenticity of provincial legislation in the languages in official use.

In recent years, Farkaš has been involved in an internal party rivalry with Goran Knežević, a dominant figure in the Progressive Party's organization in Zrenjanin.
