MASSIVE FARMER'S PROTESTS OUTSIDE INDIAN CAPITAL AND ACROSS THE NORTH OF THE COUNTRY

📹 Massive protests are confronted with teargas, armed police with rubber bullets and drones as thousands of farmers, mostly in India's northern Punjab region, protest on Tuesday demanding a Minimum Support Price or MSP for all crops to raise farmer's income.

Dozens of Farmer's unions participated in the strikes, calling for a "Delhi Chalo" or March to Delhi.

Police in and around the capital have erected barriers on highways surrounding New Delhi, and have begun firing tear gas and rubber bullets at the approaching farmers.

Tractors, along with thousands of farm hands, are seen in footage nearing the outskirts of New Delhi, in the northern Haryana state, being confronted by officers with gas and smoke bombs, including some dropped from buzzing drones overhead.

Authorities have shut down Internet services in some areas where protestors approach, and have erected concrete roadblocks and barriers, while local officials have banned public gatherings and are deploying extra security personnel.

Officials in New Delhi emphasized that sufficient police and paramilitary personnel have been deployed to all entry points to the city.

Farmers are demanding dozens of changes, including a new MSP or floor price for crops to increase and guarantee farmer income, as well as a full debit waiver, according to local union officials.

Political officials in New Delhi say they're open to talks, with Agriculture Minister, Arjun Munda telling reporters on Tuesday that the Federal government already is "bound to protect the interest of farmers."

"Farmers also need to understand that inconvenience shouldn’t be caused to the public,” Minister Munda said, adding the government was always ready for negotiations with the Farmer's unions.

“We are ready to do everything possible to find a solution to this issue,” he said.

"After the crucial second round of talks with the government failed to make any headway, the protesting farmers carried on with their Delhi Chalo march on Tuesday. There were reports of chaos on the Punjab-Haryana Shambhu border as the Haryana police fired teargas shells as farmers tried to break the erected barricades. Drones have been deployed to keep track of farmers’ movements, most of whom are on tractors.

Delhi has imposed Section 144 throughout the city for 30 days, erected barricades and iron spikes on the borders to prevent the farmers from entering the Capital.

Internet and bulk SMS services were suspended for Tuesday in seven districts of Haryana- Ambala, Kurukshetra, Kaithal, Jind, Hisar, Fatehabad and Sirsa. Several farmer leaders’ social media accounts were also reportedly blocked the previous day.

The farmers’ protest, being led by the Samyukta Kisan Morcha (Non-Political) and the Kisan Mazdoor Morcha, has been demanding legal guarantee for Minimum Support Price (MSP) for crops, as promised by the BJP-led government at the Centre, among other demands like loan waiver and implementation of the MS Swaminathan Commission’s recommendations. The farmers participating in the protest are mainly from Punjab and Haryana."

UP Farmers’ Protest March from Noida to Delhi: Key Demands and Impact 

Farmers from Uttar Pradesh, under the banner of the Bhartiya Kisan Parishad (BKP) and allied groups such as the Kisan Mazdoor Morcha (KMM) and Samyukt Kisan Morcha (SKM), launched a protest march today from Noida towards the Parliament complex in Delhi. The march coincides with the ongoing Winter Session of Parliament and aims to press the government for urgent action on their key demands related to compensation and benefits under the revised agricultural laws. This is the top news headline today!

Key Demands

1. Enhanced Compensation: Farmers are demanding 64.7% increased compensation under the old acquisition law, equating to four times the market rate, and an allocation of 10% plots.

2. Compensation for Post-2014 Land Acquisitions: For lands acquired after January 1, 2014, they seek 20% plot allocations and appropriate compensation.

3. Employment and Rehabilitation for Landless Farmers: They urge employment and resettlement benefits for children of landless farmers.

4. Implementation of High Power Committee Orders: Farmers are pressing for the government to issue binding orders on recommendations made by the High Power Committee.

5. Settlement of Populated Areas: Proper resolutions are sought for families residing in affected areas.

Security and Traffic Impact

Authorities in Delhi and Uttar Pradesh have imposed strict security measures, including barricades at Noida-Delhi border points, to manage the march and prevent a potential escalation. Intensive vehicle checks and multiple route diversions have been implemented, causing significant disruptions across the National Capital Region (NCR).

Notable traffic diversions include:

· Commuters from Chilla Border to Greater Noida are redirected via Sector 14A Flyover and Sector 15.

· Travelers from DND Border to Delhi must use the Film City Flyover route.

· Vehicles from Greater Noida to Delhi are routed through Kalindi Kunj and Sector 51.

The authorities have urged commuters to opt for metro services to avoid delays and announced exemptions for ambulances and other emergency vehicles.

Protest Details

Led by BKP leader Sukhbir Khalifa, the march began near Mahamaya Flyover in Noida at 12 PM, with participants arriving on foot and tractors. Farmers from over 20 districts, including Gautam Buddh Nagar, Agra, and Aligarh, are actively participating in the agitation.

The protest reflects the growing unrest among farmers regarding compensation and land acquisition policies. While government officials have yet to comment formally, the farmers have warned of escalating their demonstrations if their demands remain unaddressed.

This renewed agitation underscores the need for prompt action to address farmers’ grievances while ensuring minimal disruption to daily life in the NCR.

everyday i see clueless westerners (especially white people) peddle thinly veiled hindutva propaganda which they wouldn't know cause they know absolutely nothing about what goes on in india. so here are some signs that that the person you're talking to is a hindu nationalist:

they either do not acknowledge casteism or claim that caste is a western construct. my personal favourite however is dismissing anyone bringing up caste discrimination by saying that the indian constitution outlaws untouchability. they may also bring up the fact that the prime minister belongs to an other backwards class (obc) so clearly india has moved on from caste and hindutva isn't only for the upper castes. they possess a shallow understanding of caste

harping on about "islamic colonisation" : no, the mughals did not colonise india. when you point this out, they will immediately assume that you think muslim invaders were innocent beings who did nothing wrong, which is very much not what anyone is claiming here

while we're on the topic of "islamic colonisation" they will also refer to the demolishing of muslim sites of heritage and worship and then building hindu temples over them as "decolonisation" (cough cough ram mandir) the hindu right also goes around pretending that they're the indigenous people of india

along a similar vein, they will dismiss islamophobia by bringing up instances of hindu oppression in countries like pakistan and bangladesh. it is true that hindus are persecuted in these two countries, however they are used to fuel their oppression complex, that their upper caste hindu self is under attack in india of all places (think a white christian in the united states). you should be in solidarity with minorities everywhere. it is neither transactional or conditional (note: they will never bring up sri lanka. persecution of hindus exists only when the oppressors are muslim)

claiming that hindu nationalism and hindutva are not the same because hindutva means "hindu-ness". that is only the literal translation of the term. like it or not, they're the same thing

they support the indian military occupation of kashmir. they will call it an integral part of kashmir, one reason which will be "hinduism is indigenous to kashmir." they will also bring up the last maharaja of kashmir signing the instrument of accession as further proof, as if the consent of the people was taken

they're zionists. do i even need to explain this. hindutva is just zionism for hindus

they refer to buddhism and jainism (sikhism too sometimes) as branches of hinduism rather than separate, distinct religions

they condemn any resistance to the indian govt as a burden or terrorism (like calling the farmers who are currently protesting a hindrance or terrorists. funny how sikhs are the same as hindus when they support hindu causes but terrorists when they resist oppression...)

they call you a pseudo liberal or a fake leftist. i'm telling you, they don't know jackshit. they can't even tell the difference between a liberal and a leftist and call US unread lmao. bonus points if they call you a liberandu or a sickular 💀

they call india "bharat" when they talk in english. there are in fact multiple indian languages that call india bharat or bharatam, but if they say bharat while talking in english, that is absolutely a hindu nationalist no questions asked

please do your due diligence. read up on hindutva. hindu nationalists have already started making gains in the united states, thanks to rich upper caste nris. do not fall for propaganda
