Leftist People Attend A Protest Rally In Kolkata, India

Thousands of workers, farmers, agricultural laborers, and slum dwellers attend a protest rally in Kolkata, India, on April 20, 2025. The rally is organized by Leftist mass organizations demanding improved labor rights, land reforms, and basic civic amenities. The West Bengal units of the Centre of Indian Trade Unions (CITU), All India Kisan Sabha (AIKS), All India Agricultural Workers Union (AIAWU), and Bustee Unnayan Samity, a collective representing slum dwellers, convene the rally. Carrying flags and chanting slogans, demonstrators march through the city demanding minimum wage protections, better working conditions, fair prices for agricultural produce, land rights for tillers, and access to housing, water, and sanitation in urban slums.
