Claim: Photo of a farmer's head injured during a recent lathicharge at farmers' protest.
Fact-check: Photo of an injured cow vigilante shared as a farmer's injured head in a lathicharge at farmers' protest - FACTLY
Verdict: the photo is of tinku, who is a cow protector and the injury happened in gurugram while he was chasing cow smugglers. the photo has nothing to do with farmers' protest. however, on 28 august 2021, around 10 people were injured as police allegedly lathicharged a group of farmers in karnal, haryana. hence, the claim made in the post is misleading
