Meerut: Hindu organisations staged protests in Uttar Pradesh\u2019s Meerut district over the sale of a house to a Muslim family, highlighting the growing anti-Muslim bias and communal pressure in the region.<\/p>\nMeerut: Hindu organisations staged protests in Uttar Pradesh\u2019s Meerut district over the sale of a house to a Muslim family, highlighting the growing anti-Muslim bias and communal pressure in the region.<\/p>\n
According to Kashmir Media Service, the house in Thapar Nagar was purchased by Saeed Ahmed, a Muslim businessman, for INR 1.50 crore. Despite completing the sale, local Hindutva groups pressured Ahmed and staged a sit-in at the Sadar Bazar police station, reciting Hindu hymns and demanding cancellation of the transaction. Reports said Ahmed fainted en route to the police station and was hospitalised.<\/p>\n
Local Hindu leaders, including Sachin Sirohi of the Akhil Bharatiya Hindu Suraksha Sangathan, insisted that the sale be annulled, claiming it would cause Hindu migration. Some community members, however, allowed the police to mediate.<\/p>\n
Residents and activists say such incidents are part of a wider pattern of systematic marginalisation and intimidation of Muslims in housing and public life since the BJP assumed power at the Centre in 2014. Previous cases in Meerut, including in 2017, have similarly targeted Muslim families purchasing homes in predominantly Hindu localities.<\/p>\n
Observers note that these actions reflect a broader campaign to segregate communities and foster fear, further polarising India\u2019s social and communal fabric.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
