The Supreme Court on Monday told the Delhi Police that it is the 'first authority' to decide whether protesting farmers can be granted entry into the national capital or not.
The observation was made by the Chief Justice of India while hearing an application filed by the Delhi Police seeking for an injunction against the tractor rally proposed to be carried out by farmers in Delhi on the Republic Day to show their protest against the contentious farm laws.
