MUMBAI – Claims of a Muslim woman abandoned by her Hindu husband after eight years of their marriage have sent shockwaves in the community.
Shazia, a resident of Uttar Pradesh, claims that she has been left in the lurch by her husband who ordered her to get out of their home after he married another woman.
The distressing revelation comes amidst growing concerns over alleged instances of Muslim girls being ensnared in what is referred to as the “saffron love trap.”
Activist Kashif Arsalan brought attention to Shazia’s plight by sharing a video on social media platform X, captioned, “After 8 years of love and marriage, Shazia alleges abandonment by her Hindu husband.” In the video, Shazia narrates her ordeal, stating that after eight years of being together, her husband informed her of his marriage to another woman.
The incident sheds light on the broader issue of Muslim girls in Uttar Pradesh reportedly renouncing Islam and entering into relationships with Hindu youths, only to face abandonment later. The involvement of Hindu organisations in facilitating these conversions has also come under scrutiny.
In a viral video seeking help, Shazia reached out to a person named Udaya, affiliated with the same Hindu organisations that reportedly aided her in the conversion process. She said, “Uday Bhayya Jaishree Ram, my name is Shazia. I have been married for 8 years, but after 8 years, my husband is telling me to go home because he is in love with another girl, and he is also saying that he has married her.”
The case has ignited calls for justice and an investigation into the alleged exploitation of vulnerable individuals. Shazia’s plea for assistance has resonated online, amplifying the urgency for a thorough examination of the circumstances surrounding her situation.
