Supreme court refuses to entertain petitions on farmers’ protest

Deccan Chronicle  

The Supreme Court of India on Monday declined to entertain fresh petitions related to the ongoing farmers’ protest, stating that the matter is already pending before the court and it cannot entertain repetitive petitions on the same issue. The court's observation came after several petitions were filed, seeking intervention regarding the protests by farmers demanding the repeal of the three controversial farm laws. However, the court made it clear that it would not entertain new petitions on the same subject unless there is a substantial change in circumstances or new legal issues arise. This decision by the Supreme Court comes amid ongoing debates around the farm laws, which were temporarily suspended by the court in January 2021 and are currently under review by a committee formed by the court itself.
