A video of an SUV ramming the sloganeering farmers marching in a line in Uttar Pradesh's Lakhimpur Kheri over the weekend has surfaced on social media. Eight people, including four farmers, were killed in the incident.
The video, being shared widely on social media, is yet to be verified by the police. NDTV cannot independently verify its authenticity. It is not clear from the visuals who is in the driving seat.
In the 25-second video clip, one can see farmers falling to the ground as the vehicle hits them, while others scramble to get out of the way. Another vehicle, with sirens blaring, is seen tailing the SUV that rammed the farmers.
The video matches descriptions given to NDTV by farmers at the spot on Sunday who said the vehicle hit them from behind catching them unawares. The make and colour of the lead SUV that rams the farmers in the video also matches other visuals from the site.
