"Indian Farmers March on Delhi Amid Tense Protests and Political Tensions"

Thousands of protesting farmers in India demanding minimum crop prices were met with tear gas as they attempted to march on Delhi, prompting fears of a repeat of the 2020 year-long protest that resulted in dozens of deaths. The government has sealed Delhi's borders and suspended internet services in some districts, while scuffles between police and protesters have been reported. The farmers are demanding guaranteed floor prices and the fulfillment of promises to double their income, with no consensus reached in recent talks with federal ministers. More than 200 farmer unions are participating in the march, with plans for a rural strike on 16 February.
