Protest in London supporting Indian farmers
Kathmandu. People in large numbers gathered in central London in solidarity with the farmer’s protest in India. The Metropolitan Police warned individuals that they risked being fined if they breached coronavirus restrictions, and urged protesters to leave the area. One arrest was made.
Metropolitan Police Commander Paul Brogden said, “I would strongly urge anyone who is planning to come to the Aldwych area to reconsider. I would also encourage anyone who is currently in attendance to leave the area. Our officers will take the appropriate action where necessary.”
Pictures showed crowds of people holding posters in support of farmers, carrying messages such as- ‘No farmers, no food, no future’ and ‘Modi is selling out Indian farmers’, referring to Indian prime minister Narendra Modi.
New laws implemented in India have triggered uproar that eliminated rights for farmers selling, storing and pricing their produce.
