New Delhi: The Supreme Court on Thursday asked the Union government if it can give a commitment that the farm laws will not be implemented while the court is hearing the matter. The apex court is hearing petitions challenging the constitutionality of the new farm laws.
The court said this will enable negotiations with farmers. However, the Centre said that if the implementation of laws is delayed then farmers will not come forward for negotiation, Outlook reported.
“We are worried over the plight of farmers and the way things are going. They are not a mob,’ the apex court was quoted as saying.
The apex court said it will order for serving of notices to protesting farmer unions and give them the liberty to approach the vacation bench. “We are thinking of setting up an impartial and independent panel of Agri experts and farmer unions to resolve the impasse on farm laws,” Outlook reported quoting the Supreme Court.
“We acknowledge right of farmers to protest but it has to be non-violent. The purpose of staging protest can be achieved if farmers and government to hold talks and we wish to facilitate that,” the top court added.
