Hardeep Singh, the grandfather of Navreet Singh, the farmer who had died at the ITO area in Delhi on Republic Day while participating in the tractor rally, has moved the Delhi High Court seeking court-monitored Special Investigation Team (SIT) probe into the incident.
On January 26, Navreet Singh died after his tractor overturned after ramming into police barricades.
Meanwhile, the tally of injured people in the clashes at the ITO wherein some farmers deviated from the route of their tractor rally and drove into the city, has risen to 22. Of them, 11 are farmers and rest are the police officials.
As many as 18 left organisations are organising a tractor rally in Burdwan (E) headquarters.
The bench, headed by Chief Justice SA Bobde, also comprising of Justices LN Rao and Vineet Saran, said that the Delhi Police has all the authority to deal in this matter.
