"Delhi Fortified: Farmers' Protest March Challenges Authorities"

Indian police have set up barricades on major highways in anticipation of a planned "March to Delhi" by farmers demanding better crop prices, pensions, and loan forgiveness. The farmers, who form a significant voting bloc in India, have been discontent with the government's agricultural reforms and the stresses of poverty, debt, and climate change. The Samyukta Kisan Morcha expressed anger at the barricades and called for strikes to press for their demands, while refraining from participating in the planned march on Tuesday.
