On April 3, the Maharashtra Chief of “Akhil Bharatiya Sant Samiti, Dharma Samaj” (All India Saint Committee, Dharma Samaj) and Mahant Peethadhishwar, Dr Aniket Shastri Maharaj, was attacked by 1000 Muslims. The incident occurred near the Nashik highway around 1 a.m. The frenzied mob targeted his vehicle, kicked it, struck it with sticks, and shattered its windows. The assailants also wreaked havoc on other cars passing by, vandalizing them indiscriminately. The Maharaj and his companions escaped the assault by navigating their vehicle through a narrow alleyway.

Again, on April 5, Muslims in Nashik, baying for the blood of a Hindu boy, went on a rampage, vandalizing buses and vehicles on the roads. They raised the infamous “Sar Tan Se Juda” slogan (“Separate the head from the body”) against the boy, accusing him of making derogatory comments about the Islamic prophet Mohammad; the violent crowd demanded the death penalty for the boy. However, it turned out that the Hindu boy had made the alleged comments only in response to derogatory remarks that Muslims had made about Lord Ram. As per reports, the Hindu boy posted about his preparation for Ram Navami on a popular picture-sharing platform, and Muslims swarmed his posts, leaving objectionable remarks about the Hindu deity. The Hindu boy’s response led to the violence.

The Hindus witness Muslims using profanities and expletives for deities online and in the real world all through the year. They overlook such instances in most cases, while in some of these instances, Hindu associations file a legal case. Crowd violence has always been an Islamic tactic to corner the forgiving and welcoming community and keep it in fear and terror.

This latest spate of Islamic violence didn’t end with the mayhem in Nashik. On April 7, Vikas Saini, a Hindu youth from Uttar Pradesh’s (UP) Bulandshahr, was attacked by several members of the notorious Qureshi family, which boasts a lengthy criminal history. The victim’s family has alleged that the assaulters, identified as Abu Nasar, Shaukeen, and Ajaib, are known for harassing Hindus regularly and being involved in several illegal activities. As per reports, Vikas was carrying cash worth 13,000 rupees ($155) on the day of the incident. The attackers pounced upon him, pinned him to the ground, and robbed him of his money. They didn’t just beat him, but almost killed him by pouring boiling oil on him. Subhash, another Hindu youth who leaped to rescue Vikas, also suffered severe burns from the hot oil.

We have previously covered the news that five miscreants were booked after condoms, gutkha, and stones were allegedly found in samosas supplied to an automobile company in Pune, Maharashtra. The accused, identified as Rahim Shaikh, Azhar Shaikh, Mazhar Shaikh, Firoz Shaikh, and Vicky Shaikh, have been charged with placing this material into the samosas.

In other news from Vadodara, Gujarat, seven Muslims were arrested on charges of feeding beef-stuffed samosas to Hindus; the proprietor of the shop was among the accused individuals. The local Crime Branch, acting on a tip-off, conducted a raid and confiscated 113 kg of beef from “Hussaini Samosa.”

It is universally known that Hindus don’t consume beef for religious reasons (with a few exceptions among left-leaning groups). Selling beef samosas under the guise of selling regular meat samosas was an act of betrayal. This act could have prompted communal violence as well, but the Hindus chose to ignore this heinous treachery, trusting the authorities to take appropriate legal action. One can only imagine what this could have transpired into had a Hindu shop fed pork to the Muslims.

While such Muslims act on their barbaric instincts, their eminent propagandists are exasperated at seeing media houses cover Muslim-on-Hindu crimes. They accuse the media of targeting Muslims by covering stories where Muslims have either deceived or killed the Hindus. Often, dedicated Islamic apologists enter journalism solely to whitewash the criminal acts of their coreligionists; they thus find it frustrating that other journalists expose Islamic violence.
