New Delhi : The Supreme Court on Friday slammed the farmers’ body for approaching the court seeking permission to hold satyagraha at Jantar Mantar in New Delhi.

“You have strangulated city and now you want to come inside and protest,” the top court told Kisan Mahapanchayat.

The Supreme Court has asked the farmers’ body, which is seeking a permission for satyagraha, to file an affidavit by Monday confirming that they are not part of farmers' protest along the Delhi capital border.

The Supreme Court slammed the farmers’ body saying protesting farmers are obstructing traffic, blocking trains and national highways.
