2020 Indian Farmers' Protest

The 2020 Indian Farmers' Protest was a widespread movement where farmers objected to three new agricultural laws introduced by the government, claiming these laws could reduce their earnings and leave them vulnerable to big corporations. Farmers, mainly from Punjab and Haryana, demanded the laws be repealed and sought guarantees for minimum support prices. The protests involved massive demonstrations, including road blockades and sit-ins, sometimes lasting months. Despite government assurances, the farmers continued their protests until the laws were eventually repealed in 2021. The movement highlighted concerns about farmers' livelihoods, market access, and government transparency.
