On October 3rd, 2021, farmers gathered at Tikunia village in Lakhimpur Khiri district of state to stage a protest against three farm laws brought in by the union govt. during a visit by Dy. CM of the state Keshav Prasad Maurya including Union Minister Ajay Mishra Teni. While protesting peacefully, an SUV ran over them leaving 9 people including 4 farmers dead and plenty of others injured. The car was allegedly driven by Mishra’s son Ashish Mishra.As a matter of fact, this incident will be seen in sequence to other provocative statements given by BJP leaders, Mishra included,
Many videos have emerged showing the utter cruelty of the incident and FIR has been registered naming Mishra’s son.
It’s been over 48 hours since the incident but no arrests are made by the state police. Instead, it's arrested political leaders imposing Sec. 144 within the area. The utter brutality of the incident is harking back to colonial times where people were considered subjects instead of citizens and denied justice.
To ensure an efficient and impartial probe into the incident, and produce culprits behind bars, it's demanded to :-
Remove Ajay Mishra Teni from Union Minister Post.
Arrest Ashish Mishra at earliest. Release Political leaders Appeal from Mumbai Multimedia Studio #yusufbhandarkar
