The farmers’ unions, however, reiterated their demand for the repeal of the three farm laws, legal guarantee of Minimum Support Price and vowed to continue their fight. Samyukt Kisan Morcha (SKM), a coalition of several hundred farmer unions, said in a press statement that its constituents would work in coordination to help the patients in Delhi hospitals. The packing process to distribute food would commence at Singhu border on Tuesday. Already farmers on the Ghazipur border were distributing food at bus terminals, railways stations and hospitals of Delhi, claimed the SKM, adding that a group on the Tikri border had announced to offer essential services and asked people to contact them in case they were facing difficulty in getting food.“We are judges and therefore, cannot act like Mughals of a bygone era ... the writ courts in the guise of doing justice cannot transcend the barriers of law,” the High Court of Karnataka observed while setting aside an order of a single judge, who in 2016 had extended the lease of a public premises allotted to a physically challenged person to 20 years contrary to 12-year period stipulated in the law.
