NEW DELHI: Supreme Court on Friday favoured a comprehensive national policy to protect farmers, many of whom have committed suicide due to rising debt and crop failures caused by natural calamities, terming it a "sensitive" matter of public interest and human rights.

"It is a sensitive matter of larger public interest and human rights which covers the entire country," a bench comprising Chief Justice J S Khehar and Justice N V Ramana said.

The bench, on its own, expanded the scope of the petition which has raised the issue of farmers' suicides in Gujarat, to entire country.

"In this matter, we are of the view that all states should assist and accordingly we implead all state governments, Union Territories, the Centre and the RBI," the

bench said asking them to file their responses in four weeks.
