In late 2016, several hundred farmers gathered for a protest in Barkagaon, a town in the eastern Indian state of Jharkhand. For 10 years, indigenous people in the area had been resisting efforts by NTPC Limited, a state-controlled electricity company, to forcibly evict them from their ancestral land and establish a coal mine. On Saturday, October 1, things came to a head. In the pre-dawn hours, the police moved in and tried to disperse the protesters, who were unarmed.
