Allahabad HC seeks state's reply on cane farmers' dues

-The Times of India
 

ALLAHABAD: Hearing a public interest litigation (PIL) seeking payment of sugarcane farmers' dues, the Allahabad High Court on Tuesday directed the state government to file its reply within two days. The court also fixed May 30, as the next date of hearing.

The above order was passed by a division bench, comprising Chief Justice Dr Dhananjaya Yeshwant Chandrachud and Justice Dilip Gupta on a PIL filed by Rastriya Kisan Mazdoor Sangthan.

The counsel for the petitioner contended that farmers had not been paid the interest on their dues. Further, the payment of sugarcane for the session 2013-14 was yet to commence. On the other hand, the banks have started recovering the loan given to sugarcane farmers. In total, the petitioner sought payment of dues to the sugarcane farmers.
