Max retries exceeded

Question

I'm trying to fetch a request from urllib3 and my code works. However, few websites like https://hackershala.com and etc which uses different TLS version are not being able to be fetched. I tried changing useragent, but it didn't work for obvious reasons.

urllib3.exceptions.MaxRetryError: HTTPSConnectionPool(host='hackershala.com', port=443): Max retries exceeded with url: / (Caused by SSLError(SSLError(1, '[SSL: TLSV1_ALERT_PROTOCOL_VERSION] tlsv1 alert protocol version (_ssl.c:852)'),))

My code is

import urllib3

http = urllib3.PoolManager()
url = input("Website URL: ")
r = http.request("GET", url, headers={
    'User-Agent': 'Mozilla/5.0'
})
rp = r.status
print(rp)

You should probably add this line to configure your urllib3

import requests
import urllib3
requests.packages.urllib3.util.ssl_.DEFAULT_CIPHERS = 'ALL:@SECLEVEL=1'
