🇮🇳250 million went on strike in India!
Workers went on strike answering the call by the Central Trade Unions to protest far-right Modi’s 2020 anti-worker labor codes.
Farmers, students, teachers, and other professionals joined the call, resulting in a major disruption to Indian industries. The 2020 labor codes, propelled by the BJP, strip workers of their rights and directly attack unionization and collective bargaining.

Despite creating waves of disagreement and rifts within Donald Trump’s coalition, the passage of the “One Big Beautiful Bill” appears to have gone as planned.
