“Photos of Delhi police thrashing the farmers who participated in the tractor rally organized on Republic Day”
What FACTLY found
While one photo shows a Sikh protestor being stopped by Delhi police while marching towards the Prime Minister’s office in 2013, the wounded Sikh man in the other photo is a Gramin Sewa auto driver who was thrashed by the Delhi Police in 2019. These photos have nothing to do with the recent violent clashes between the protesting farmers and the Delhi police.
