A bench of justices Surya Kant and Ujjal Bhuyan emphasised the constitutional right to protest but urged that it be conducted peacefully in line with "Gandhian principles". The court also highlighted the need to prevent violence and maintain public order.
"Let no force be used. Farmers should also agitate peacefully. Peace must be maintained," the bench observed.
The court took note of Punjab advocate general Gurminder Singh's contention that the farmers' blockade of major highways, including the arterial Khanauri-Shambhu stretch, was causing significant economic disruption for the state. "Finances of the state are suffering," Singh informed the bench.
However, the court refrained from issuing directives that it deemed impractical, stating that resolving the underlying cause of the protests is paramount.
