I can't watch the video from Palghar. Those frail sadhus clinging to the police man's hand while being pushed in to the crowd. I couldn't watch beyond 15 secs. This is terrible.
Unbelievable apathy being shown by @Palghar_Police in dealing with mobs & sadhus irrespective of what the old men may have been accused of doing. This isn't how MH ever was. I weep as my state goes to the dogs.
The Sadhus had a name. A few media that do appear don't have their names like Akhlaq. Sadhu Kalpvriksh Giri Age 70 Yrs & Sadhu Sushil Giri Age 35 Yrs. Imagine if some Maulvis would have faced same situation. Heart wrenching. 
They were travelling. They didn't give a call for prayers or collect people. They were people of cloth. Sanyasis. @Palghar_Police willfully allowed them to be lynched. In front of their eyes. Let that sink in. They stood as mute spectators.
Dear @DGPMaharashtra you have all my life been the best police irrespective of which political party was in power. There is a reason why your men are called fondly as "Mama (Uncle)" by Maharashtrians. Your sighting in an any situation brings solace to the person.
The lynchings of Sadhus is a blot in the presence of @Palghar_Police has wiped out all the pride and trust we have had in you @DGPMaharashtra
"Mob was strong"? Bangdya ghatlatya ka haathat @Palghar_Police Sharam laaj kahi rahili tumhala? Eki kade Tukaram Ombale saarakhe police ani doosri kade tumhi. Lajjasapad bab aahe hi. @DGPMaharashtra
Still shaking after 5 hrs. I don't think I will be able to sleep tonight. This is how I felt during Pulwama. Helpless. Hopeful. Disappointed. #SadhuLynching
