Supreme Court lashed out at a farmers' group : "strangulated the entire city and blocked highways"

 
Meaning Of
The Supreme Court lashed out at a farmers' group protesting the three agricultural laws saying they have "strangulated the entire city (Delhi) and blocked highways".

This comes a day after the top court had taken a grim view of the continuing blockade of highways connecting the national capital to the neighbouring states by farmers protesting against the farm laws, saying that the roads cannot be blocked perpetually.

The SC bench led by Justice A M Khanwilkar said protests have strangulated traffic to and from Delhi.
"Every citizen has the right to free movement. You have stopped the business. Have you asked the residents around the protest points whether they are happy with the protests," it asked.
