Muslims riot by throwing stones at protesting Hindus in Nashik

  • Hindus had organised a protest march against the atrocities on Bangladeshi Hindus

  • Hindus and the Police injured

  • Pre-planned riot

  • Vehicles vandalised and glasses broken

Nashik – A march was held here on behalf of ‘Sakal Hindu Samaj’ to protest against the atrocities on Hindus in Bangladesh. When the march came to the milk market, there was a verbal clash between the Hindus and the Muslims. Muslims started raising slogans, after which the Hindus also raised slogans. After that the Muslims suddenly started pelting stones. (Since it was a Hindu march, Muslims had already collected stones and started this pre-planned riot –  Editor).

Hindus and the Police injured in stone pelting by Muslims

In the areas including Old Nashik, Sakshi Ganesh area, Main Road area and Pimpal Chowk area of Nashik, there was significant tension for a few hours in the evening. There were 10 to 20 Policemen in each lane. A total of 600 Policemen were deployed. After this incident, officials of Hindu organisations gathered in the old Nashik area. At this time, Muslims pelted stones on the vehicles and also broke the windows of the cars. A bandh was called by the Hindu community here to protest against the atrocities on Hindus in Bangladesh. Hindus appealed to close the shops. Reportedly, ‘Sakal Hindu Samaj’ march was not allowed in Bhadrakali area.

Skin the backs of those who are upset with the march : Ashish Shelar, BJP leader

No one should take the law and order into their hands. Strict action should be taken against the stone pelters. We appeal to the Police to skin the backs of those who are upset with the protesting Hindus. If Hindus cannot organise a protest march here, where else will they ?

Hindus not solely responsible to maintain the law and order : MLA Nitesh Rane, BJP

“Jihadists are creating disharmony in the society. Land Jihad, Love Jihad and denigration of Hindu Deities are rampant. On the one hand, they commit atrocities against Hindus, encroach their land and Hindus cannot even take to the streets for their rights ? Maharashtra has a Government of Hindutva ideology. For self-defense the action has to be followed by a reaction. Hindus are not solely responsible for maintaining the law and order. Jihadists don’t want to obey the laws. They want Sharia law. Hindus are taught ‘bhaichara’ (brotherhood). But they are killing our mothers and sisters. The rules applicable to Hindus should be applied to them as well,” expressed BJP MLA Nitesh Rane while talking about this incident. When asked the question ‘What will you appeal to the Hindus to maintain the law and order ?’ , Rane gave the above befitting answer to ‘ABP Majha’. (All Hindu leaders should stand firm with the Hindus – Editor).
‘ABP Majha’ news channel showed the scenes of Police lathi-charging Hindus and Hindus running away for a few seconds. This may lead to misunderstanding that the Hindus started the riot, when actually, the stone pelting was started by the Muslims.

Editorial Perspectives

  • The fanatic Muslims are prohibiting Hindus in Hindu majority India, to speak against the atrocities on Bangladeshi Hindus; and if they did so, Muslims are rioting. Such pro-Bangladesh
    people should be put behind the bars forever
  • Note that no one calls such fanatic Muslims as ‘violent’ or ‘intolerant’!
  • How would the Police, who cannot protect themselves, ever protect the Hindus ? Hindus
    must learn to protect themselves in the times of crisis.
