(Deepshikha Gautam, Intern Journalist) New Delhi: Petitions related to the removal of farmers lying on the Delhi border against the new agricultural laws of the Center were heard again in the Supreme Court today. The court postponed the hearing and said that they would not give any order without hearing all the parties. Notice will be sent to all parties. The court said during this time that farmers have the right to protest, but this should not obstruct the right of others to come. The demonstration cannot mean closing the capital. Just the performance will not serve the purpose.
During the hearing on Thursday, Chief Justice SA Bobde said that a protest is constitutional as long as it does not damage property or life. The Center and the farmers will have to talk. We are thinking of forming a fair and independent committee, before which both sides can present their views.
The committee will give a conclusion, which should be followed. Meanwhile, protests may continue.
CJI SA Bobde also said that the independent committee could have P Sainath, Bharatiya Kisan Union, and other members.
The peasants cannot incite violence nor in a way block a city. Blocking Delhi can leave the people of the city hungry. By talking, the objective of the farmers can be fulfilled. Only sitting on the protest will not benefit.
We are also Indians, we are familiar with the plight of farmers and are sympathetic to them. The farmers will only have to change the way they protest. We will ensure that he can present his case in the case. Thus, we are thinking of forming a committee.
The Supreme Court asked the Center to explore possibilities of putting the law on hold. The court asked the Attorney General whether the government could assure the court that it would not take any executive action on the implementation of the law until the court heard the case. The Attorney General questioned what kind of executive action? If this happens, the farmers will not come for discussion. The CJI said the move is for discussion.
