On 19 November 2021, Indian prime minister Narendra Modi announced that the government will be repealing the three controversial farm laws. For over a year, farmers had been protesting the anti-people, pro-corporate laws across the country. Over 750 farmers were martyred in this struggle against the far-right BJP-led govt’s neoliberal reforms in the agricultural sector of the country. Leaders of All India Kisan Sabha talk about this historic victory and the struggle ahead.
