The top court of India, Supreme Court told the centre that it has the power to suspend the farm laws amidst the massive farmer protests near Delhi. The Chief Justice of India SA Bobde announced to put on hold the three laws until the further notice. He further decided to propose the names of Agricultural economics Ashok Gulati, Harsimrat Mann, Pramod Joshi, Anil Ghanwat as the members of the Committee. The big question that arises here is whether such interference of the Supreme Court resolves the deadlock over farm laws?

The Chief Justice claimed that the current situation generated due to the protest of farm laws has created matters of life and death. It is the matter of life and property of people affected by the struggle.

Who are active members in farmers protest march?

The farmers protest march named by Delhi Chalo is lead by the farmers to reveal anger against the three central farm legislations. When farmers did not get any positive response from their respective state governments, the farmers decided to create direct pressure on the Union Government. This was the reason they decided to move towards Delhi. UP and Haryana state governments lead by BJP were failed to convince farmers, however, the Rajasthan and Punjab States gave total support to strike.

Farmer protest from Haryana is lead by Gurnam Singh Chaduni who was the contestant of assembly elections from Ladwa constituency in Kurukshetra in the year 2019. However, he could not win the election, but he has been a great effort maker in raising farmers� issues. He has several criminal cases being a leader of protests and becoming a great cause to disrupt the law and order.

Why farmers show anger?
Following three new acts passed by the government are not accepted by the farmers:

1. The farmers� produce trade and commerce
2. The farmer�s agreement of price assurance
3. Farm services and the essential commodities amendment law

Due to countrywide exposure of sale and marketing of agriculture produce, the trade barriers between states will be removed. The farmers fear the end of mandi system, and they will have to live at the mercy of corporates. The mandi system will also put an end to the system of procuring crops at a minimum support price.

After several days of no solution to the conflict between the government and farmers, the Supreme Court is expected to find a reasonable solution through mediation. To get the latest legal news updates on farm laws, keep visiting India Legal website.
