Observing that there is a trust deficit between farmers and the government, the Supreme Court proposed constitution of an independent committee comprising eminent persons to reach out to the protesters to find a solution to their demands.
A three-judge bench headed by Justice Surya Kant said there is a need for a “neutral umpire” who can inspire confidence between farmers and the government. “You have to take some steps to reach out to farmers.
