What is said about India’s strike? [originaltext]A huge protest has taken place

A huge protest has taken place in India in what could be the largest demonstration in human history. Tens of thousands of farmers descended on the capital New Delhi to voice concerns about new farming legislation. This number is nothing out of the ordinary for a demonstration. However, history was made when up to 250 million people from a broad cross-section of the subcontinent joined in a 24-hour general strike. The protesters came from all walks of life to show solidarity with the farmers. The scale of the protest forced the government to meet the protesters face-to-face. The numbers made the government change its tactics somewhat, as marches are usually met with a show of force from the police. India’s farmers are up in arms about the enactment of three laws to "reform" the country’s agriculture industry.
