Jitender alleged that the attackers were from Rajput caste and the family had a confrontation with them in October after which a case had been registered.

"We were sleeping when they poured petrol from the window. I smelt the petrol and tried to wake up my wife but by then the fire had started. My children died in the fire...," said a wailing Jitender.

"They had threatened me that they will finish my family, That I should never return to the village... I won't but please give me back my children," he said.

The incident has led to tension in the area.

"Security has been tightened in the village and we are investigating the matter," a police official said.

Two people have been arrested in connection with the case and an investigation is on to nab the other suspects.  

The attack caused tension in Ballabgarh area of Faridabad district. Officials said the attack could be the fallout of the arrest of 11 people last year in connection with some murders in the area.

“Those who were victims in last year’s case are the accused in today’s case. The victims in today’s case named the accused and we registered a case against them,” said Subhash Yadav, the commissioner of police of Faridabad.

Police registered the case under provisions of the Indian Penal Code and the Scheduled Caste and Scheduled Tribe (Prevention of Atrocities) Act. A hunt has been launched for the attackers, officials said.

While criticising the incident, Chief Minister Manohar Lal Khattar announced a compensation of Rs 10 lakh for the family.

Now my question to you, is that 10 lakh sufficient for the lives lost?

Or maybe in their terms 10 lakhs is perfect compensation for the lives of those two kids.

India is on the way to set perfect example for setting a value of every living person.

Alas, even after 60 years of Independence we are still living in the Neanderthal age, pity and shame  is all we have to share.

Welcome to caste based, communalised and politics divided India!!
