Farmers protest 2.0: What do they want? What is their strategy?

By Economic Times - 9 months ago
Farmers Protest 2.0 is underway as farmers from Punjab, Haryana, and Western Uttar Pradesh march towards Delhi on February 13. Unlike the previous protests, this time the farmers are demanding a range of measures from the Central government to ensure the financial viability of farming. The protests are being spearheaded by a breakaway faction of the Sanyukt Kisa Morcha (SKM), excluding major farmer leaders from the previous protests. The demands include a legal guarantee of minimum support price (MSP) for all crops and the implementation of the recommendations of the MS Swaminathan committee on agriculture.
