"We Will Protects The Farmers' Land"- Supreme Court- Hearing On Farm Laws And Farmers Protest: Live-Updates

Salve : When your lordships pass the order, it may be indicated that this is not a victory for anyone.

CJI : It is a victory for fair play.

Salve : Yes, it will be a victory for fair play and court's conscience.

Salve : The Republic Day parade must go unblemished.

CJI : Dave undertook that yesterday that there will be no tractor rally.

Salve : But he is not here today. The Solicitor General has filed an application to stop the rally.

Salve : I don't know who ML Sharma represents. He has filed a petitioner in person and says negative things. We don't have Dave, Phoolka and Colin Gonsalves today, though they said they represent nearly 400 protesters. This is really concerning.

Salve : I say with a heavy heart that no body is interested in the judicial process.

CJI now turns to Senior Advocate Harish Salve.

CJI : Where has (Dushyant)Dave gone now? Yesterday he said he will get back today with the views of farmers unions. They have not logged in also.

CJI : We want to place on record our appreciation for this stand(about elders, women and children not participating in protests in future).

CJI to AP Singh : We will record you statement that elders, women and children will not participate in the present protests.

AP Singh, for one of the farmers union BKU-Bhanu, says that he conveyed to his clients the concerns of the court about the presence of senior citizens and they agreed to go back.

CJI : Your clients said so?

AP Singh : Yes.

CJI reiterates that the Court will form the Committee.

'We don't want the negative inputs which we got from Sharma that farmers are not going to appear before the Committee".

P Wilson for MP Thiruchi Siva submits that the laws were passed without discussion in the house.

CJI : Yesterday the AG submitted that the south is supporting the laws.

Wilson : That is not correct. Wrong fact. Today Vijayawada is burning with protests.
