Patel said that he was returning to Sanchore this morning after worshipping a cow in Pathmeda when "a car followed me and overtook me and parked it in the middle of the intersection.
A large number of people were standing there.I turned the car aside and asked the reason, but fearing an attack, I closed the car window".
"When the vehicle was being taken out, it was attacked from behind.I recognised one or two people.
They are from outside the district," he said.
