The police on Tuesday revealed that eleven of the accused in the horrifying lynching of Hindu sadhus in Palghar have been tested positive for coronavirus.
Journalist Swati Goel Sharma has pointed out that The Wire's founder Siddharth Varadrajan, speaking to Newslaundry, had also claimed that sadhus as 'people belonging to nomadic tribes', in an attempt to peddle the narrative that they were not Hindus.
