SC Gives Punjab Govt Till Jan 2 To Admit Dallewal In Hospital
Hindustan Times Ranchi|January 01, 2025
The Supreme Court on Tuesday extended time till January 2 for the Punjab government to comply with its order to hospitalise Jagjit Singh Dallewal, who has been on a hunger strike for over a month, after the state informed the court that the farmer leader is willing to receive medical aid if the Centre accepts his proposal for talks.

NEW DELHI:

Facing the heat from the court for not complying with its order to provide medical aid to Dallewal, whose fast has entered the 35th day, the Punjab government moved an application seeking an additional three days citing intervening circumstances and the ongoing negotiations with farmer leaders at the protest site on the Khanauri border.

Holding a special hearing of the case on Tuesday, a bench headed by Justice Surya Kant said, "We are not going to say anything on the ongoing negotiation or whatever is going on behind the scenes. We will be happy if something comes through. But we are on compliance of our order."
