There have been multiple deaths related to the protests already, and the protesters have not been able to reach Delhi due to police resistance. Modi's government has gotten the company formerly known as Twitter to censor the accounts of Punjabi activists so that they're inaccessible in India.

The big thing I want to highlight is the death of Shubh Karan Singh. This is an article from BBC Panjabi (I had to use Google Translate to read it, as I do not speak Punjabi); I haven't seen any major English-language news outlets reporting on what is going in Punjab. Amnesty International also has a short statement about his death. Shubh Karan Singh was killed due to a bullet wound to the head while at the protest on the border of the state of Punjab and the state of Haryana. At this point it's pretty clear that Haryana police shot him, and so it sounds like the government of Punjab is going to file a case against the Haryana police.

Btw Punjabi farmers are protesting again.

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.

Tens of thousands of farmers in Pakistan are holding protests in several cities over the government’s decision not to buy their wheat, causing them huge losses in income. The farmers in Punjab, the country’s largest province and often called the “bread basket” of Pakistan, are demanding that the government stop wheat imports that have flooded the market at a time when they expect bumper crops. At a protest in Lahore, the provincial capital, on Monday (April 29), police violently pushed back the farmers with batons and arrested dozens of them.

"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."

As a member of the Punjabi Sikh diaspora, this is huge news. The BJP, a party that has consistently acted in ways that betray its assertion that it is not anti-Sikh, got no seats in Punjab, a majority-Sikh state.

Additionally, Punjabi voters voted in a political prisoner as a member of the Lok Sabha, which is a really big deal. Amritpal Singh was detained under the National Security Act for advocating for the Khalistani separatist movement. Being charged under the NSA, whether the charges are real or fake, is a method the Indian government uses to shut down dissent through linking it to a banned ideology.

Right now, it’s the 40th anniversary of Operation Bluestar, in which the Indian military killed civilians on pilgrimage to the Golden Temple. This led Indira Gandhi’s Sikh bodyguards to assassinate her and resulted in the 1984 anti-Sikh genocide. The 1984 genocide has still not been officially recognized as a genocide by any nation, despite meeting the criteria; there has been no justice for its victims.

There have also been Sikh political prisoners in jail for over 30 years. An internet shutdown was used during the manhunt for Amritpal Singh. (Internet blackouts a tool that India also uses in Kashmir.) The BJP’s agricultural policies were met with mass protests that resulted in policy brutality against peaceful farmers.

All of this has impacted how Punjab votes, and it means that they’ve voted against the BJP and for candidates who have campaigned on the solutions to their issues, and that means no more Hindu nationalist support.

Voting matters. Voting is how Punjabis, and especially Punjabi Sikhs, were able to make their voices heard this election. Their Lok Sabha members may not be able to do much to fix the issues in Punjab caused by the national government, but at least there is hope that they’ll be able to prevent it from getting worse.

take a moment to read indian election news!! india has voted against the ruling fascist party. while they will resume government they will need to forge alliances and have lost multiple strong members of parliament. and all this despite them controlling the media and jailing their opposers! this is SUCH an important reminder that u shld never ever underestimate the power of a vote
