Ruling AAP and opposition BJP MLAs staged protest in Delhi Assembly premises on Thursday over various issues.

Carrying miniature ploughs in assembly premises, BJP MLAs protested against the Kejriwal government's "anti-farmer" policies.

He said if the government will run away from a discussion on farmers' issue in the House, BJP MLAs will stage a dharna outside the chief minister's chamber in the Assembly.
