NEW DELHI -- India's capital was under tight security on Tuesday after farmers called a "march to Delhi" to push a list of demands such as better crop prices, debt relief and pensions for agricultural workers.
The tensions are flaring just months ahead of India's general elections in April and May. Prime Minister Narendra Modi's Bharatiya Janata Party is widely expected to easily win a third straight five-year term, but in recent years it has found itself at odds with India's farmers -- a key voting bloc wooed by all political parties.
