2020-2021 Indian Farmers' Protest
The 2020-2021 Indian Farmers' Protest was a large-scale movement where farmers, mainly from Punjab and Haryana, opposed new agricultural laws introduced by the government. They believed these laws favored large corporations, undermined their income, and reduced government control over procurement. Farmers feared losing safety nets like minimum support prices. The protests involved mass demonstrations, tractor marches, and sit-ins primarily around Delhi. After prolonged agitation and negotiations, the government eventually repealed the laws in November 2021. The movement highlighted issues of farmers' rights, economic security, and the impact of market reforms.
