For six weeks now, tens of thousands of farmers have choked the capital’s four main entry points with camps that have become virtual cities unto themselves, using donations and their own organizational skills to help their battle.

Many of the farmers are Sikh, and they said their beliefs and sense of tradition had helped them make the sacrifices to sustain the protests.  The protesters are demanding that Modi repeal recent farming laws that would minimize the government’s role in agriculture and open more space for private investors. The government says the new laws will unshackle farmers and private investment, bringing growth. Farmers are skeptical, fearing that the removal of state protections they already consider insufficient will leave them at the mercy of corporate greed.  “They sold everything else.
