Abstract

Twitter is an excellent initial point for social media analysis. People directly share their opinions through Twitter with the public. One of the very common analyses which can perform on many tweets is sentiment analysis. The 2020–2021 Indian farmer’s protest is a protest against three farmer acts which were passed in parliament of India in 2020. In this paper, we have performed sentiment analysis of the protest of farmers in India (2020–2021) by considering the opinion of the people. The data is taken from hashtags that are related to farmers protest and some minor hashtags related to farmers. Based on the result of analysis, we conclude the impact of the protest done to repeal the farmer’s act, on India. On analysis, we obtained the result as percentages of positive, negative and neutral.
