Farmer Protests

The Farmer Protests in India are ongoing demonstrations by farmers primarily demanding the repeal of three new agricultural laws introduced in 2020. Farmers believe these laws favor large corporations at their expense, risking their income and traditional ways of farming. They fear losing government support and fair prices, leading to protests mainly around Delhi. The government argues the laws will modernize agriculture, but farmers are concerned about long-term impacts. The protests involve large gatherings, marches, and sit-ins, highlighting their call for safeguards and reforms to protect their livelihoods while discussions continue for a resolution.
