Sonbhadra massacre: Priyanka Gandhi with family members of the victims.
Sonbhadra massacre: After she resolved that she will not leave unless she was allowed to meet families of those killed, few members from the families came forward to Congress general secretary Priyanka Gandhi on Saturday morning. However, they were stopped before they could meet her.
Meanwhile, A TMC delegation was detained at the airport in Varanasi on Saturday when it was going to meet families of victims of the Sonbhadra clash in which 10 people were gunned down this week over a land dispute, party MP Derek O'Brien said.
The Trinamool Congress (TMC) team comprises O'Brien, MP and leader of the delegation Sunil Mondal and MP Abir Ranjan Biswas.
The team has now sat on a dharna on Varanasi Airport.
