General strike in Kolkata
Left Chairman Biman Basu and Senior leaders join a rally during a general strike in Kolkata on September 2, 2015. Millions of workers across India held a 24-hour strike September 2 in protest at right-wing Prime Minister Narendra Modi's economic policies, which they say will put jobs at risk and hurt ordinary people. Some 150 million workers, including those in the banking, manufacturing, construction and coal mining sectors, were expected to walk off the job (Photo by Debajyoti Chakraborty/NurPhoto)
