Seed farm Shoot-out
The cruelty of the Punjab terrorism was at its peak in the late
eighties. The fact is manifested by the seed farm shoot out case of
Lodhuwal, in which 19 innocent
persons were first tied up with ropes, and then mercilessly killed
by the terrorists. The incident goes like this. On November 4, 1992
at about 8.40 PM. the workers at the seed farm, Lodhuwal (which is a
Govt. seed farm on the out skirts of Ludhiana towards the river
Sutlej) were about to take rest after the day's hardwork. At that
time, seven terrorists armed with AK-47 rifles came to the seed
farm, at gun point tied up all the workers of the farm with ropes
and started firing on them. Ninteen workers lost their lives.
