सब कुछ जानकर... सब कुछ देखकर भी... मौन धारण करनेवाले हृदयहीन लोग और उनके समर्थक देखें कब तक इस उपेक्षा को उचित ठहराते हैं.
ऐसे हादसे मृत्यु नहीं हत्या हैं.
Both the trucks were carrying the labourers. The incident took place between 3 am and 3.30 am, they said.
"Indescribable sadness on the death of over 24 poor migrant labourers in UP's Auraiya. Prayers for the injured persons. Let's see till when the silence maintained by heartless people and their supporters justify this negligence... despite knowing everything, and seeing everything. Such accidents are not deaths, but murder," Yadav said in a tweet in Hindi.
