Farmers in India are out on the streets protesting, claiming the government has reneged on promises to guarantee prices for their crops. People in this sector make up as much as 40 percent of India’s voters, but Prime Minister Narendra Modi is showing little sign of backing down, even as he seeks a third term in office. Rebecca Bundhun explains why they’re upset and why they may not get their way this time.
