💨 Abstract

A Supreme Court-appointed committee met with septuagenarian farmer leader Jagjit Singh Dallewal on Monday, after being persuaded by the Punjab government. Dallewal, on an indefinite hunger strike since November 2024, refused medical aid and is demanding a legal guarantee on minimum support price for crops. The committee requested him to avail medical aid and the next hearing is scheduled for January 10.
