The Supreme Court on Wednesday directed the Punjab government to furnish a complete set of comparative medical reports of farmer leader Jagjit Singh Dallewal, who has been on hunger strike since November 26, 2024, for an independent evaluation by the director of the All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS), New Delhi.

NEW DELHI:

The farmers, led by Dallewal, have been camping along the border since February 2024, demanding systemic agricultural reforms and legal guarantees for Minimum Support Price (MSP) -- the price at which the government procures key crops.

A bench comprising justices Surya Kant and N Kotiswar Singh ordered that Dallewal's medical reports, covering the period from December to January 14, be submitted by the state to the registrar of the Supreme Court during the course of the day. The registrar will then forward these reports for examination by the AIIMS director, who in turn will submit his opinion by January 22.
