Hundreds of drivers made their way around downtown Detroit as snow fell heavily Sunday to show solidarity with farmers in India who are protesting laws they argue could devastate crop prices and reduce their earnings.
Thousands of Indian farmers have been demanding the government repeal the laws for more than two months.
“The Indian government is stubborn,” said caravan organizer, Amandeep Jhajj, of Canton. “With this we want to tell the Indian government, the power is the democracy and in the people so they have to listen to the Indian people and the Indian farmers.”
