Shivam Vij [1]points to caste based violence. “A little over a month ago, four members of a dalit family were massacred in Kherlanji, a village in district Bhandara, 120 kms away from Nagpur in Maharashtra.” [Warning – Images maybe disturbing.] Great Bong comments [2] on what may be real trigger. “Regardless of the fact that similar atrocities have been perpetrated by animals of various political hues on various castes of people, unified only by their poverty.”
