An assault on a Muslim youth man by Jai Shri Ram chanting Hindutva thugs in Kanpur has sent shockwaves across India with activists expressing disgust over the use of a Hindu religious chant for terror activities. What has left civil rights activists numb is the desperate cry for mercy by the Muslim victim’s little daughter in the video.

The Uttar Pradesh Police, which reports to the Yogi Adityanath government, has made a few arrests and booked others including some unknown people, but the cops’ role too has come under scrutiny. Men in uniform from the Uttar Pradesh Police were seen standing as mute spectators even as Hindutva thugs mercilessly beat up the Muslim men in front of his little daughter.

Three men arrested have been identified as Ajay Rajesh “Band waala”, Aman Gupta, and Rahul Kumar. According to a report by the Indian Express, the police made arrests based on the complaint filed by the victim, Afsar Ahmed.

The Hindutva thugs accused Ahmed, an e-rickshaw driver, of raising anti-national slogans. But he has denied the allegation. Ahmed was also forced to chant Jai Shri Ram.

In the video, Hindutva thugs were seen chanting Jai Shri Ram as they launched a violent attack on the Muslim man in the presence of the personnel from the Uttar Pradesh Police.

As expected, the video of Ahmed being attacked by Hindutva goons evoked angry reactions from social media users.








Members of the militant Hindu outfit Bajrang Dal later staged protests outside the Kanpur Police Station against the arrests of their members.
