SC to hear plea on farmer leader Dallewal’s deteriorating health amid 50-day hunger strike

The farmer leader, who is the convener of the Samyukta Kisan Morcha (Non-Political), has been fasting at the Khanouri border to press for these demands.In its earlier orders, the Supreme Court directed the Punjab government to prioritise Dallewal’s health and provide medical assistance. During one of the hearings, the court reprimanded the Punjab government for allowing the situation to deteriorate and not adhering to its directives, stating: “You have to persuade him from this angle.”The court reiterated: “Let his health part be taken care of, and he can continue his peaceful protest even when he is hospitalised.” Punjab Advocate General Gurminder Singh was also instructed to ensure compliance with these directives.This hearing could prove pivotal in addressing the prolonged standoff between farmers and the Centre over the MSP issue.
