NEW DELHI – A video has surfaced on social media showing Bajrang Dal men taking out a rally chanting anti-Muslim slogans and making alarming threats of sexual violence against Muslim women.

The incident reportedly happened in Uttar Pradesh’s communally sensitive city of Muzaffarnagar on November 3.

However, the video of the incident was posted on social media on Wednesday, November 6 purportedly shows the agitated group raising provocative slogans such as “Na Mullo ka na Qazi ka yai desh hai Shivaji ka”, Hindustan mai rehna hoga Jai Shri Ram Khena hoga (This country belongs neither to Mullahs nor to Qazis; it belongs to Shivaji. If you want to live in Hindustan, you must chant Jai Shri Ram.)”. The men also used abusive words directing at the mother of Muslims.

The Hindutva group led by district coordinator Pratik Sharma are heard suggesting sexual offences against “mothers of Muslims” while asserting that India belongs solely to Hindus.

The incident has sparked outrage and concerns about women’s safety, particularly belonging to the Muslim community with people highlighting the alarming nature of the protest.

According to the reports, the group members staged the protest, accusing Muslim individuals of attacking Hindu a family during the Govardhan Puja festival.

The incident is particularly notable as it follows another recent violent event that occurred in Bihar where a radical mob climbed a nearby mosque and hoisted a saffron flag while waving the Israeli flag during the Kali Visarjan Yatra near Tamtam Chowk under the Lalmatia Police Station.

The incident triggered anger among the Muslim community. Social activists flagged concerns about communal harmony and the provocative action of such radical outfits during religious events.
