FRANCE 24 English published this video item, entitled “One year after reform, Indian farmers continue protest movement • FRANCE 24 English” – below is their description.
One year ago, India’s parliament passed a series of laws aimed at reforming the country’s agricultural system. The move was supposed to allow farmers, especially those cultivating wheat and rice, to sell their products to private companies, without going through local markets. But what was meant to be a revolution for Prime Minister Narendra Modi has turned into the longest and biggest peasant protest since the country’s independence 75 years ago.
