Notably, the Special Investigation Team (SIT) probing the case on Tuesday termed the Lakhimpur Kheri violence as a ‘pre-planned conspiracy’. On October 3, eight people were killed in this violence including four farmers and a journalist.
Earlier in the day, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi gave an adjournment of business notice in the Lok Sabha to discuss the report submitted by the SIT of the UP police on the Lakhimpur Kheri violence.
