MUZAFFARNAGAR: A day after the Rajya Sabha passed two farm reform bills, the Bharatiya Kisan Union on Monday announced to stage a nationwide protest against the legislations on September 25.
The BKU made this announcement while holding a demonstration against the farm bills outside the Muzaffarnagar district magistrate's office under its leader Rakesh Tikait.
