NEW DELHI: Farmer leader Jagjit Singh Dallewal, who is on a fast-unto-death, and several protesting farmers' unions have urged the Supreme Court to ask the Centre to implement a parliamentary standing committee's recommendation for legally guaranteed support prices.
In its report on demand for grants (2024-25) tabled in the just-concluded Parliament session, the standing committee on agriculture, animal husbandry and food processing has backed the idea of legally guaranteed minimum support prices (MSP) for farm produce, calling it "essential".
The standing committee also recommended that the agriculture ministry formulate a road-map towards implementing the MSP proposal, a key demand of several farm unions since 2021.
