Today(on 24th July),The Supreme Court suggested forming an independent committee of eminent individuals to engage with protesting farmers, emphasizing the need for a “neutral umpire” to bridge the trust gap between farmers and the government. The proposal aims to address the ongoing protests and ensure a just and peaceful resolution.
The Haryana government appealed to the Supreme Court against a High Court order to remove barricades at the Shambhu border. The barricades were set up due to farmer protests demanding a legal guarantee for minimum support price for crops. The Supreme Court questioned the state’s authority to block the highway and emphasized the need to regulate traffic.
