For many Sikh Americans, India s new farm laws hit close to home Claire Wang © Provided by NBC News When Aasees Kaur was growing up, she often saw bounties of wheat, cauliflower and tomatoes on her family s farm in Amritsar, a city in the Indian state of Punjab, where her Sikh family has been farming on the same land for nearly two centuries. She now lives in Cincinnati, but she still has many relatives there whose main source of income is agriculture. So when Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi s government enacted three laws in September to deregulate the sector, scrapping guaranteed minimum prices for key crops and removing the government as the middleman between farmers and distributors, she joined her family abroad in protest. Kaur, 25, worked with local Sikh activists to organize a car rally this month in Cincinnati, which, despite below-freezing temperatures, drew nearly 1,000 people.
