Indian police drop tear gas with drones as farmers march on New Delhi

Police in India fired tear gas at hundreds of protesting farmers and their supporters. The demonstrators were marching to New Delhi to pressure the government to honor a promise to pay them more for crops. Drones were filmed dropping tear gas canisters on the assembled crowds. Security in the capital was tightened after farm unions from northern states called for protests. It came a day after talks with ministers failed to secure minimum prices for a range of crops. #india #farmer #protest Subscribe to The Telegraph with our special offer: just £1 for 3 months.
