Since the laws were passed last year, the farmers have hunkered down on the outskirts of New Delhi and camped out for nearly a year, including through a harsh winter and a coronavirus surge. Over the last year, dozens of farmers died due to suicide, hostile weather conditions and COVID-19 during the demonstrations that have since drawn international support. (AP)
