Two contract workers were arrested for defacing the walls of a factory washroom in Bidadi near Ramanagara with pro-Pakistan slogans and derogatory remarks against Kannadigas. The incident, which has sparked widespread outrage, is being seen as yet another instance of Islamist elements attempting to spread anti-Bharat rhetoric within the country. The Islamists wrote “Jai Pakistan” and “Kannadigas son of b****es” on the factory washroom wall, triggering outrage.
As per ETV Bharat, the accused, identified as Haimad Hussain (21) and Sadiq (24), hail from North Karnataka and were employed at a Japanese automotive component manufacturer’s unit in Bhimenahalli, Bidadi. The matter came to light on March 14 when employees discovered the hateful graffiti scrawled in green paint inside the washroom. The factory’s HR department swiftly terminated their contracts and issued a strict warning against such activities.
During interrogation, the accused admitted that their actions stemmed from anger over their colleagues mocking them after Pakistan’s defeat against Bharat in the recently concluded ICC Champions Trophy. This shocking admission underscores how deep-rooted Islamist propaganda is fostering anti-national sentiments even among employed individuals in key industries.
What initially began as an internal disciplinary issue soon took a serious turn when images of the graffiti surfaced on social media. The viral posts ignited massive protests outside the factory, with thousands of Kannada activists and workers demanding severe punishment for the culprits. Protesters also alleged that a similar incident had been covered up the previous year, raising concerns about the increasing boldness of anti-Bharat elements within Karnataka.
The Bidadi Police acted swiftly, launching a thorough investigation involving handwriting analysis, CCTV footage review, and employee interrogations. The findings led to the identification and subsequent arrest of Hussain and Sadiq. They have been booked under Section 67 of the IT Act and Sections 193 and 356 of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS), ensuring legal consequences for their anti-national activities.
This incident serves as a stark warning about the growing audacity of Islamist forces attempting to destabilize Bharat through insidious means. The rising trend of such actions, whether in educational institutions, workplaces, or social spaces, demands immediate attention from law enforcement and the government. The company’s official statement unequivocally condemned the act and reinforced its commitment to workplace harmony and national integrity. It also warned that future engagement in such behavior would attract legal consequences under sedition laws.
“Slogans like ‘Pakistan Zindabad’ were found in four different locations inside the Toyota factory, prompting the company to file a police complaint. How have we reached such a situation?” leader of opposition R. Ashoka questioned.
He recalled a previous instance where similar slogans were raised inside the Vidhana Soudha and condemned the recurring pattern. “This has happened in a globally recognized company like Toyota, which employs 10,000 people. Instead of taking strict action, the government is attempting to cover up the matter. People are asking whether this government has any sense of responsibility left,” he remarked.
Calling for harsh punishment, Ashoka stated, “The only way to stop such acts is to deal with the culprits strictly. They should be shot.”
He emphasized that while he does not blame an entire community, the actions of a few individuals have tarnished its reputation. Criticizing the government’s inaction, he added, “Toyota is an international company with extensive CCTV surveillance, yet the authorities have failed to act. Whose interests is this government protecting?”
This growing wave of anti-Bharat, pro-Islamist rhetoric fueled by deshdrohi elements is becoming increasingly alarming. Such incidents are not isolated but part of a larger, dangerous pattern spreading across Bharat. Immediate and decisive action is needed to curb this rising threat to national integrity.
