NEW DELHI: India will push on with sweeping agriculture reforms, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said Sunday, as he criticised last week s deadly riot in the capital following a long-running protest campaign by farmers.
Thousands flooded New Delhi on Tuesday, driving tractors from border camps where they have been holding sit-ins since November 26; but the rally turned into a rampage which left one person dead and hundreds of police injured.
