The Hindu
‘What happened there can very well happen against anyone in the country’
The attack on farmers in Lakhimpur Kheri in Uttar Pradesh was a premeditated murder, charged Congress leader and former IAS officer Sasikanth Senthil.
Participating in a protest here on Tuesday against the farmers’ death after a car ploughed through a group of farmers, Mr. Senthil said that the incident happened after Union Minister Ajay Mishra made an inflammatory speech against the protesting farmers. Charging that it was barbaric attack on the farmers, Mr. Senthil compared this with that of violence that erupted after prolonged peaceful protests by minorities against Citizenship Amendment Act in Delhi.
