The horrific incident, which has sent shockwaves across the state, involved the killing and burning of five members of a tribal family in Tetgama village, allegedly due to superstitions surrounding accusations of witchcraft on July 6.

Gandhi's call, facilitated by Adivasi Congress President Vikrant Bhuria, who met the family in person, underscores his commitment to

standing with marginalised communities in times of crisis.
