Farmers' body announces 'rail roko' protest against farm bills

Punjab's Kisan Mazdoor Sangharsh Committee will stage a 'rail roko' protest from September 24 to 26 against farm bills. Other farmer organisations have also called for a "bandh" on September 25. This comes after Lok Sabha on Thursday passed two farm bills. Notably, Harsimrat Kaur Badal of Shiromani Akali Dal resigned as Union Minister in protest against the bills.
