Ludhiana: After the recent sword distribution incident in Ghaziabad, Uttar Pradesh, fresh threats against Muslims have now surfaced in Ludhiana in Punjab, increasing fear among the Muslim community and raising serious questions about the growing spread of hate speeches by leaders linked to Hindutva organisations.<\/p>\n
According to Kashmir Media Service, a leader associated with a Hindutva group recently addressed a public meeting in Ludhiana and made violent and abusive remarks against Muslims. A video of the speech later went viral on social media, causing outrage and deep concern among Muslim groups.<\/p>\n
During the speech, the Hindutva leader openly called for violence. He was heard saying, \u201cWhen every Bajrang Dal leader comes out with weapons, we will crush the Mullahs.\u201d The most alarming part of the Hindutva leader\u2019s speech came when he spoke about religious practices. He announced plans to set up Hanuman Chalisa centres in villages and said these would be used to counter Muslim Friday prayers. He said from the stage, \u201cIf Hanuman Chalisa centres are built in every village, Hindus will be protected. This will stop the Friday activities.\u201d The speaker went further and claimed, \u201cLakhs of people will recite Hanuman Chalisa, and this talk of Jihad and separatism on Fridays will be stopped.\u201d<\/p>\n
These remarks have created fear among Muslim families in the region. Muslim community members say such speeches are meant to openly encourage attacks on Muslims and spread panic and hatred. The use of such language has been widely condemned by civil society members.<\/p>\n
Muslims say they are still waiting for police action. A community elder said, \u201cSuch speeches are clear calls for murder. If no action is taken, it sends a dangerous message.\u201d Muslim organisations have demanded immediate action against those spreading hate. They say selective silence only adds to fear. A rights activist in Punjab said, \u201cOpen threats to kill Muslims and attacks on Friday prayers cannot be treated lightly.\u201d<\/p>\n
The Ludhiana incident comes soon after a disturbing event in Ghaziabad, Uttar Pradesh. On Monday, members of Hindu Raksha Dal openly displayed and distributed swords in the Shalimar Garden area. Stalls were set up where sharp weapons were handed out, and activists went door to door, asking people to keep weapons at home. They reportedly told residents to use them \u201cfor protection against Jihadis\u201d and claimed that such people were roaming in India as well.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
