The families, living in the EFR quarters in Salua, near Kharagpur, say that Kishenji got what he deserved. “Jaise karni, waise bharni (As you sow, so shall you reap),” said Sona Subba, widow of Madhukar Subba, a 45-year-old rifleman who was among those killed. “We have not forgotten that February night when Kishenji’s men killed my father,” said Rishi, her 22-year-old son who is still waiting for the promised government job.
