New Delhi: A Hindutva leader has threatened to kill those involved in cow slaughter, and hoist a saffron flag on a mosque.<\/p>\n

According to Kashmir Media Service, Prashant Mishra, known as ‘Little Yogi’, made the incendiary remarks in a viral video, prompting concerns over Uttar Pradesh police’s leniency towards such elements.<\/p>\n

\u201cI will openly kill cow slaughterers; I will climb atop a mosque and hoist the saffron flag.\u201d Such statements are a direct challenge to the state\u2019s law and order machinery and threaten communal harmony.<\/p>\n

These inflammatory remarks are not merely aggressive rhetoric; they explicitly advocate for violence in the name of cow protection\u2014a highly sensitive issue in India\u2014and further call for \u2018kar seva\u2019 (religious volunteer service) at mosques, a term historically associated with contentious religious site disputes.<\/p>\n

The open pronouncements like that by Prashant Mishra, made seemingly with impunity, starkly underscore serious concerns regarding hate speech and public safety.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
