And Bittu Bajrangi, cow vigilante and key accused of last year’s violence, has claimed to lead the procession this year.
Bajrangi, who was arrested by the Haryana police last year and subsequently granted bail, told Newslaundry that he is set to lead the yatra. He has also been urging people to participate in the yatra in huge numbers.
