Protests alter poll behaviour, shift fringe voters attitude, organize disconnected ones
By Kashif Khan
Farmers and workers in India last month initiated a general strike that saw the participation of over 250 million people. Many have touted this as the biggest organized strike ever witnessed in human history. On November 26, millions of farmers and workers along with students, social organizations and opposition participated in Bharat Bandh against the Narendra Modi s contentious pro-corporate farm bills.
A month later, farmers are still occupying the nation s capital with the unwavering demand of repealing the farm bills. The ongoing struggle of Indian doctors against the government s decision of certifying certain ayurvedic surgeons highlights yet another protest being written in the history of India.
