Bharat Bandh Latest Updates: What was the hurry to pass farm bills, asks Maharashtra Dy CM & NCP's Ajit Pawar

Three bills, passed recently by the Parliament, have been hailed as a 'historic' reform by the BJP-led government, even as many Opposition parties protest vehemently. The dissent against these bills has now led to many farmers' bodies across the country, as well as political parties, marking September 25 as a bharat bandh. In some areas, trains have been cancelled, and security ramped up.
