Saini, who represents Kurukshetra in the Lok Sabha, was on a visit to Amabala to attend a function to facilitate the health workers for their Covid duty. The farmers had gathered to register their protest against Saini’s visit.
The incident comes days after eight people, including four farmers, were killed in violence in Lakhimpur Kheri, Uttar Pradesh, when a convoy led by Ashish Mishra, son of Union Minister Ajay Mishra allegedly rammed into a small crowd of farmers.
The incident sparked national outrage as opposition leaders expressed their anger against the government and made their way to the spot of the incident.
The police registered an FIR under murder and conspiracy charges against Ahsih Mishra while the government constituted a committee to probe the incident.
