The Indian government passed three agricultural legislations last September, which led to protests by farmers mainly belonging to the states of Punjab and Haryana. After months of peaceful demonstrations, on 26 January 2021, the agitation turned violent, resulting in one protestor's death and injuring several policemen. What is also interesting is that the protests have received the support of Sikh groups living in Canada, the United Kingdom and Australia, thus garnering international attention. To share more insights into these recent developments and its political ramifications, we are joined by Mr Vinod Rai, a distinguished Visiting Research Fellow at ISAS and former Comptroller and Auditor General of India.
