"Indian Police Block Roads as Farmers March to New Delhi Amid Ongoing Protests"

TL;DR Summary
Indian police block roads to prevent farmers from marching to New Delhi to demand better crop prices as promised in 2021, ahead of national elections where Prime Minister Narendra Modi is expected to win a third term. The farmers are seeking higher support or guaranteed prices for their produce and want the government to fulfill its promise to double farmers' income. The government had repealed farm laws after a year-long protest in 2021 and pledged to ensure support prices for all farm produce, but farmers accuse the government of not acting on this promise.
