NEW DELHI: The Delhi High Court allowed a farmers' association on Monday to give a fresh representation to the city police for holding a peaceful demonstration at Jantar Mantar here to raise various issues, including a demand for the release of the Cauvery water by Karnataka to Tamil Nadu. A bench of Chief Justice Satish Chandra Sharma and Justice Sanjeev Narula was informed by the Delhi government's counsel that an earlier representation of the petitioner association was rejected by authorities.
The court disposed of the petition filed by P Ayyakannu, the Tamil Nadu unit president of the National South Indian River Interlinking Farmers' Association, seeking permission to hold a demonstration at Jantar Mantar.
