Viral Video Shows Hindutva Goons Vandalising Shops of Muslim Men and Assaulting 3 Muslim Men in Madhya Pradesh

On Saturday, a Hindu mob in the Madhya Pradesh province of India forcibly closed the shops of Muslim minorities in the region. The mob also assaulted the Muslim men and vandalised their shops.

A video that surfaced on the internet, shows a mob of Hindu protestors holding a saffron flag, chanting the slogan of ‘Desh ke gadharo ko, goli maro salo ko’ (Shoot the traitors).

The video depicts 3 maltreated Muslim young men with blood on their faces, who were assaulted by the Hindu goons.

A Muslim auto-rickshaw driver was also assaulted by the violent Hindu mob. In the video, with blood oozing out of his face, the Muslim auto-rickshaw driver can be heard saying, “They are assaulting us, unlawfully. They are assaulting the Muslim youth, unlawfully.”

“I am an auto driver. I was here standing near my auto. Why did they assault me? What was my fault?” the auto driver asked.

The police can also be seen chasing the protestors in the video but as per reports no arrest has been made as of now.

This is not the first time that Muslims have been subjected to abuse in Madhya Pradesh. Last month, a Muslim bangle seller was assaulted by Hindu goons in Indore for selling bangles in a “Hindu area.” The viral video showed a Muslim man being assaulted and some men even taking money out of his pocket.

In the same month, an elderly Muslim hawker was beaten up in the Dewas district of Madhya Pradesh after he failed to provide his Aadhaar card.

In the Ujjain and Rewa districts of Madhya Pradesh, two Muslim youth were subjected to abuse and were forced to chant ‘Jai-Shree Ram.’
