Singhu lynching: Nihang group admits to killing man, BJP slams farmer leaders | 10 points

A Dalit man was found dead at Delhi's Singhu border on Friday morning. While a Nihang group has claimed responsibility for the murder, the BJP has slammed farmer leaders over the incident and the Samyukta Kisan Morcha has distanced itself from the case.

At around 5 am on Friday, farmers protesting at Delhi's Singhu border woke up to the gory sight of a body with a severed wrist and legs chopped off tied to a metal barricade near their protest site. A video of the gruesome incident also emerged on social media. The gruesome murder at Singhu border is shocking and condemnable. Hope the perpetrators are quickly brought to justice. But there will now be an attempt to paint all protesters as killers. Just watch how low Govt supporters will go.

Over the course of the day, details of the incident emerged. The deceased was identified as 35-year-old Lakhbir Singh, a Dalit man, with no criminal history or political affiliation, as per police sources.
