Farmers' Protest: Who is Greta Thunberg And Why is She Supporting Indian Farmers?

Greta Thunberg took Twitter by a storm with her tweet supporting the farmers' protest and she has again, in another post, made her stand clear saying, "I still #StandWithFarmers and support their peaceful protest."

"I still #StandWithFarmers and support their peaceful protest. No amount of hate, threats or violations of human rights will ever change that. #FarmersProtest," the Swedish environmental activist said in her latest tweet. Greta's tweet came moments after news reports said that the Delhi Police had lodged an FIR against her over her recent tweets on farmers' protests in India. However, the police later clarified that the FIR was against a 'toolkit' containing information on how to back the farmers protests and that nobody was named in the said FIR. This isn’t the 1st time that Greta has spoken against a raging issue. Greta drew attention for the first time in 2019 when she spoke at the UN Climate Summit in New York.
