Car rally brings traffic to standstill in Birmingham over Indian farming laws
THOUSANDS of people drove to an Indian consulate in Birmingham over the weekend in solidarity with farmers in India who are protesting against punitative agricultural reforms.
It comes after about 250,000 people in India went on strike last week in a standoff with the government over new farming laws which would allow privateers greater roles in the sector.
Birmingham is in Tier 3 — meaning that groups of more than six are not allowed to meet.
