January 20, 2021 14:00

Supreme Court begins hearing the pleas on the issue of farmers protest at Delhi borders and Centre's plea against the proposed tractor rally or any other kind of protest. The SC says it will not pass any order on the Centre's plea against proposed tractor rally or any other kind of protest by farmers on Republic Day.

Centre withdraws plea seeking injunction against proposed tractor rally by farmers on January 26 after SC says it is a police matter.

CJI says, "We've said that it is for the Police to decide. We are not going to pass the orders. You are the authority to take action."

The Supreme Court asks the Centre to withdraw its plea against the proposed tractor rally by farmers on Republic Day.

Supreme Court also begins hearing the pleas on the issue of farmers protest at Delhi borders.

Advocate appearing for Kisan Mahapanchayat tells Supreme Court that application has been filed on their behalf to reconstitute the Committee after one member recused from it.

Supreme Court asks whether it's the same organisation which rejected the constitution of committee yesterday.

"We gave power to the committee to listen (to farmers) and come to us and file their reports," the CJI said.

"What is the point of bias in it?," the CJI said and added that don't cast aspersion on Court.
