When I do agent.get(URL) I get blank results while when I access the URL directly I can see the results. Is it because some cookies are passed to the result page? Can you please help me to print cookies before agent.get(URL) so that I will know what is being passed?

Did you check how the page looks in your browser with javascript turned off? – Felix Oct 22 '16 at 19:28

I could solve this by adding the cookies before submitting the form.
agent = Mechanize.new
cookie = Mechanize::Cookie.new(name: '#{name}', value: '#{value}', domain: '#{domain}', path: '/')
agent.cookie_jar.add(cookie)
