One year of protests: Farmers on Modi's repeal speech and the media
On November 19, prime minister Narendra Modi repealed the three contentious farm laws. During his announcement, Modi said the decision to repeal the laws was taken because "a section of farmers could not understand the farm laws".
It's been one year since the farmers – mainly from Punjab, Uttar Pradesh and Haryana – began protesting at Delhi's borders. In this video, Newslaundry speaks to them on why they're upset with Modi's speech, whether they're celebrating, and why they haven't left the protest sites yet.
