Bharatiya users are fuming on social media over some controversial posts targeting Kashmir by reputed multinationals. Hyundai’s Pakistan dealership came under heavy fire for sharing a post on its official social media handles, extending support to “Kashmir Solidarity Day”. Soon after, #BoycottHyundai started trending on Twitter, with Bharatiyas condemning the car giant’s controversial stand. Now, KFC has come under scrutiny over the same reasons, IB Times reported.
Bharatiyas are calling for a boycott of KFC, the popular fast-food chain with branches across the globe. The reason for the social media boycott, which is trending in Bharat under the hashtag #BoycottKFC, is a post shared by the eatery’s Pakistan handle last year.
“We stand together this Kashmir Solidarity Day, to realise their right to freedom,” KFC PAK wrote. Making things worse, a picture of snowy mountains with overlaying text: Their cravings for freedom are heartfelt, was shared. The word Kashmir is marked with a barbed wire, signifying Kashmir is not free, the report said.
As the screenshot of last year’s tweet by KFC Pakistan on Kashmir went viral, many Bharatiyas took to Twitter to express their dismay. Hundreds and thousands of users have called out the propaganda against Bharat on the sensitive issue of Kashmir. Netizens are already pledging never to eat again at a KFC joint, IB Times reported.
The social media post, which triggered this controversy, remains active on all of KFC Pakistan’s social media channels. KFC India, however, has issued an apology for the controversial post from its Pak handles, the report said.
Korean car maker Hyundai Motor India found itself on a sticky road with its statement that many Bharatiyas consider as insufficient and skirting over the issue of whether Kashmir is an integral part of Bharat. On Twitter the handles Boycott Hyundai” and ‘Boycott Kia’ started trending.
Pakistan declared a holiday on February 5 to express solidarity with terrorists and Kashmiri separatists operating from Indian soil. On February 5, Hyundai Pakistan as well as a dealer of Kia Motors in Pakistan shared posts on social media extending support to the Pakistan-sponsored violence in Kashmir under the garb of ‘solidarity’ which is being celebrated as ‘Kashmir Solidarity Day’ every year on 5th February every year, the report said.

Congress’ covert support to the ‘tukde-tukde’ gang is out in the open as evident from Rahul Gandhi’s address in the Loksabha. His speech, where he said Bharat is a ‘union of states’, is ample proof of the partisan politics of Congress which is continuing the divide and rule policy of the British.
What did Rahul Gandhi say?
Gandhi was speaking the language of leftists-separatists where he promoted regionalism rather than a unified concept of the country. He echoed CPI ideologue Gangadhar Adhikari who sought to justify Mohammed Ali Jinnah’s demand for partition in his 1943 document Pakistan and National Unity. The document justified Jinnah’s demand for carving out partition by using the treacherous argument that Bharat had always been a collection of kingdoms and not a single united nation.
Similar divisiveness is seen in the demand for “United States of South India,” which pits Delhi against the South. It is in this context that we must see Gandhi’s particular reference to Tamil Nadu and the subsequent support to his view from Dravidianist Stalin. Not surprisingly, the DMK supports Congress’ divisive views. Separatism has been the foundation of the Dravidian movement which saw it instigate members of the state against Hindi.
Even though the Wayanad MP constantly swears by the constitution, it was his grandmother who not just misused it but also distorted it to extract political mileage. He alleged that the BJP government brought China and Pakistan together while conveniently forgetting the ill-conceived policies of his grandmother and great-grandfather who ceded strategic portions of Bharat’s land to China and also mollycoddled Pakistan.
PM Modi takes Nehru-Gandhi scion to task
PM Modi while replying to the accusation that the government wasn’t helping the poor pointed out how Nehru had refused to take responsibility for the rising inflation citing Korea and America while the current Central government has brought in schemes to aid the poorest of the poor as also encourage enterprising youngsters to set up their own business despite the pandemic that has affected the entire world.
He also pointed out how Gandhi had erred in assuming that the concept of a nation never existed in Bharat. The PM quoted the Vishnu Puran which says the nation that lies to the north of the sea and south of the Himalayas is known as Bharat and its inhabitants are called Bharatiyas. He even used a similar quote of Nehru to bring home the point.
The PM said, “Congress has become the leader of the tukde-tukde gang and appears to have taken upon itself to continue the divide and rule policy of the British”. Exposing the Congress gameplan, PM Modi pointed out that the party has attempted to use the regionalism card and questioned the nation’s unity and integrity.
In this context, he also highlighted how Rahul Gandhi had attempted to stir ‘Tamil sentiments’ while adding that Tamils put nationalism above regionalism as they lined up to pay their last respects to CDS Rawat. Earlier, Tamil Nadu BJP State President schooled Gandhi regarding Tamil history.
Congress has always played dirty tricks to hold on to power but by sowing seeds of divisiveness, the party is plumbing newer depths. Comical as Gandhi’s guffaws sound, the sinister motive is hard to miss. That Congress and its first family put themselves before the nation has become crystal clear once again.
हिन्दू लड़कियों को अपने मंगलसूत्र फेंकने का नारा लगवाने वाली फेमिनिस्ट हिजाब के समर्थन में उतर आईं। हालांकि इतने दिनों से शांत बैठी फेमिनिस्ट किसी क्रिया की प्रतीक्षा में थीं, जिससे वह प्रतिक्रिया दे सकें। दरअसल एक विशेष वर्ग है जो भारतीय जनता पार्टी की सरकार से हर प्रकार का लाभ भी उठाता है, हजारों और लाखों रूपए की फेलोशिप से लेकर जुगाड़ से नौकरियों से लेकर सरकारी मंचों पर वाहवाही भी पाता है और साथ ही प्रगतिशीलता का अर्थ हिन्दू धर्म को कोसना समझता है।
फेमिनिस्ट वर्ग का कहना था कि मुस्लिम महिलाओं से ही सुधार की आवाज आनी चाहिए, और राजनीति एवं हिन्दुओं को इसमें नहीं बोलना चाहिए। यहाँ तक बात ठीक लगती है, ठीक है हर समाज की महिलाओं को अपने आप आवाज़ उठानी चाहिए, परन्तु जो आज यह कह रही थीं, उनमें से कितने लोगों ने तसलीमा नसरीन के पक्ष में आवाज उठाई? कितनी महिलाओं ने उन सरकारों का विरोध किया, जिन्होनें तसलीमा नसरीन को अपने अपने राज्यों में प्रवेश नहीं करने दिया था? कितनी कथित फेमिनिस्ट लेखिकाओं ने यह कहा कि अमुक दल की सरकार पहले तसलीमा नसरीन की सुरक्षा कट्टरपंथी इस्लामिस्ट से सुरक्षित करे तो हम उसका सम्मान लेंगी या सरकारी मंच पर जाएँगी? कितनों ने भी नहीं!
आज वामपन्थी कथित फेमिनिस्ट जहाँ एक ओर इस कट्टरपंथी जिद्द के समक्ष नतमस्तक हो गई थीं, तो वहीं तसलीमा नसरीन, रूबिका लियाकत जैसी महिलाएं इन झूठी फेमिनिस्ट लेखिकाओं के समक्ष आईं, तसलीमा नसरीन ने लिखा कि
आप मुस्लिम महिलाओं के बुर्का और हिजाब पहनने, नमाज पढने और हज करने और कुछ पढ़ाई करने के अधिकारों के लिए लड़ते हैं, और मैं इसलिए लडती हूँ कि मुस्लिम महिलाओं के पास पढ़ाई करने का, आर्थिक रूप से स्वतंत्र होने का और वैज्ञानिक सोच वाली मुक्त सोच का अधिकार हो, वह धर्म, पितृसत्ता और भेदभाव से मुक्त हों
You fight for Muslim women's rights to wear burqa & hijab,to pray & perform hajj & to get some education. I fight for Muslim women's rights to be educated, financially independent & free thinking human beings with scientific temper,to be free from religion, patriarchy & misogyny.
और जिस लड़की की बहादुरी पर यह कथित फेमिनिस्ट बलिहारी हो रही हैं, उसके विषय में भी तसलीमा ने कहा कि उसकी बहादुरी और साहस को सुन्दर कहा जा सकता है, क्योंकि उसे वह शिक्षा से मिला, बुर्के से नहीं!
The student who walked with head held high, with her smartness and courage looked beautiful. But the reason behind her extra ordinary beauty is her education, not her burqa.
रुबिका लियाकत ने बहुत अच्छी बात कही, और मजे की बात यही है कि जब रूबिका लियाकत और तसलीमा जैसे स्वर उभर कर उसी समुदाय से आ रहे हैं, तो फेक फेमिनिज्म कहीं उसी बुर्के के अँधेरे में खो गया है, जिसमें वह मुस्लिम लड़कियों को धकेल रहा है।
रुबिका लियाकत ने लिखा
मैं हैरान हूँ इनके डबल स्टैंडर्ड से।।औरतों के हक़ की डफली बजाने का ढोंग करने वाली ये सारी ख़ालाएँ अपने पर्दे, हिजाब, बुर्का दुपट्टा सब पीछे छोड़ चुकी और आज लड़कियों को आगे लाने के बजाए पीछे ढकेल रही हैं।।solidarity स्वाँग रच रही है ताकि इनका एजेंडा चलता रहे।

“मत भूलना ये वही औरतें हैं जिन्होंने पहले शाह-बानो का साथ नहीं दिया…फिर तीन-तलाक़ पर दशकों मुस्लिम औरतों पर अत्याचार देखती रहीं…अब बच्चियों को हिजाब में बांधने का समर्थन कर रही हैं”

जो लोग घूँघट और बुर्के की बात कर रहे हैं, उन्हें भी रूबिका ने जबाव देकर कहा कि
मैं राजस्थान से आती हूँ वहाँ घूँघट की प्रथा एसी थी कि आधी चूनर घूँघट में ख़त्म हो जाती थी… लेकिन कभी किसी लड़की को घूँघट में स्कूल जाते नहीं देखा।। किसी परिवार को स्कूल कॉलेज प्रशासन से ज़िद करते नहीं देखा।। ज़माना आगे बढ़ा औरतों ने घूँघट कारना लगभग ख़त्म कर दिया लेकिन ½
लेकिन हम उल्टे ही चले जा रहे हैं।। ईमानदारी से अपने आस पास मुस्लिम बुज़ुर्ग नानी-दादी को देखिए बुर्का नहीं भारतीय लिबास पहने मिलेंगी ऊपर दुपट्टा या चादर पहनेंगी।। या तो साड़ी या फिर सलवार क़मीज़।। ये काले बुर्के नई पीढ़ी में इस कदर बढ़ कैसे गए?

वहीं खान अब्दुल गफ्फार खान की पोती यास्मिन निगार खान ने कहा स्कूलों में एक यूनीफोर्म कोड होना ही चाहिए, अगर आप खुद को स्कूल के भीतर किसी बुर्के या हिजाब से ढकेंगी तो पहचान की समस्या होगी।
I think a uniform code should be followed in schools. If you cover yourself with a burqa or hijab inside school premises, then there will be an issue of identification: Yasmin Nigar Khan, granddaughter of Khan Abdul Ghaffar Khan & All India Pakhtoon Jirga-e-Hind president pic.twitter.com/gEl1oXDBIz
यह नियम केवल स्कूल के लिए बने हैं, जिसका विरोध यह लडकियां कर रही थीं, जो अब पूरे देश में फ़ैल गया है, फ़ैल गया है या फैला दिया गया है, क्योंकि एकदम से ही कई राजनीतिक दल इसमें कूद पड़े हैं। सीएए का विरोध करने वाला और किसान आन्दोलन में अपनी “कुबौद्धिक” सेवाएं देने वाला पूरा का पूरा वर्ग इसमें कूद पड़ा है और यह मामला भी मुस्लिमों के अधिकारों के हनन के रूप में सामने लाया जा रहा है, जो सरासर झूठ है क्योंकि किसी ने भी उनके हिजाब पहनने के अधिकार पर प्रतिबन्ध नहीं लगाया है, बस स्कूल के कुछ ड्रेसकोड है, उन्हें भी इन लड़कियों को तो नहीं ही मानना है, और साथ ही उनका साथ देने वाले कथित फेमिनिस्ट और कुबुद्धिजीवी भी इस प्रकरण में पूरी तरह से नंगे हो गए हैं।
वह न ही शाहबानों के समय शाहबानो के साथ खड़े हुए थे, और न ही तीन तलाक में तलाक पीड़िताओं के साथ, न ही वह हलाला के खिलाफ बोल रहे हैं, यदि उनका कहना यह है कि वह उन महिलाओं का साथ देंगे जो अपने मजहब की कुरीतियों के खिलाफ आवाज उठाएंगी तो फिर वह उर्फी जावेद के साथ क्यों नहीं है? जिसे हर समय उसके छोटे छोटे कपड़ों के कारण कट्टरपंथी इस्लामिस्ट परेशान करते हैं?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A1o85C4kF5A
वह सारा अली खान के साथ क्यों नहीं दिखाई देते, जब वह मंदिर की तस्वीरें पोस्ट किए जाने पर इस्लामी कट्टरपंथियों का शिकार होती है? वह उन तमाम अफगानी लड़कियों के पक्ष में खडी क्यों नहीं हुईं, जिन्हें तालिबान ने अब शांत करा दिया है।
दरअसल आज हिन्दी की फेमिनिस्ट लेखिकाओं का असली कट्टरपंथी इस्लामी चेहरा सामने आया, जिसमें बजबजाती घृणा थी, और वह घृणा थी हिन्दुओं के प्रति, वह घृणा थी केसरिया के प्रति, वह घृणा थी प्रभु श्री राम के प्रति!
वह न ही रूबिका लियाकत और तसलीमा नसरीन जैसे आजाद ख्याल लड़कियों के पक्ष में खड़ी होती हैं और न ही उर्फ्री जावेद के पक्ष में, जो यह कहती है कि उसे इस्लामी कट्टरपंथ से घुटन होती है, जो यह कहती है कि उसके कपड़ों का निर्धारण वह खुद करेगी? हिन्दी का फेमिनिज्म इस्लामी कट्टरपंथ की जूनियर ब्रांच बनकर रह गया है!
In the last six months, 2,439 women were raped, 9,529 kidnapped, and 90 others were killed on the name of “honour” in Pakistan’s Punjab province, according to official data.
The data, which was released by the Punjab Information Commission on behalf of the provincial police, paints a bleak picture of violence against women and children in the province, the Friday Times reported.
From July to December 2021, nearly 900 children were sexually abused, while 204 cases of child labour were reported and 12 instances of under-aged marriage were registered.
In the provincial capital of Lahore, 2,330 women were kidnapped during the six-month time frame and nearly 400 rape cases were registered.
In Sheikhupura, there were 78 rape cases and 990 reports of torture, while 423 women were registered as kidnapped. In Nankana Sahib, almost 400 women were tortured, 423 were kidnapped and at least 32 reported rape, the report said.
In Kasur, an astounding 1,239 women registered instances of torture during the past six months, while another 371 reported kidnappings and 101 reported rape.
Gujranwala reported 777 cases of women being tortured, 309 kidnapping cases and 78 rape cases.
Finally, in Faisalabad, there were 318 cases of torture against women and children, 94 kidnapping cases and 41 rape cases in the past six months.
Some women’s rights activists believe crimes against women remain under-reported in Pakistan, while others point to the increasing attention such cases get on social media as evidence that women today are more willing than before to report these crimes to police.
Several high-profile cases, including the murder of Noor Mukadam in Islamabad last July, have captivated national attention of late, highlighting the continuance of violence against women in the country, the Friday Times reported.

In a shocking incident from Mumbai, the Bhayandar police on Wednesday, February 2, arrested Adil Munawar Khan, a 21-year-old Muslim man for killing his live-in partner Puja’s two-year-old daughter. It has been alleged that Khan got infuriated after the toddler started to cry for milk.
The police complaint was made by Puja Wagh, the mother of the deceased, who had been living with Khan after separating from her husband. Puja had moved in with the accused after leaving her husband when she was three-months pregnant with her second child; the elder daughter, who was still a toddler when Puja decided to move in with Khan, is still living with her father.
Puja, who works in a catering company, gave birth to her second child, Sonali, in January 2020. As per her statement given to the police, on Tuesday night she had gone for work leaving Sonali in Khan’s care.
The following morning, she received a call from Khan. He told her that the child had injured her head and was bleeding. He briefed her that Sonali was playing games on his mobile phone. After giving her tea he ‘noticed that she had fallen’. Khan told Puja to reach Tembhe Hospital, where Sonali was admitted.
By the time Puja reached the hospital, the doctors had already declared Sonali dead and the hospital authorities informed the local Bhayanadar police station. The autopsy report confirmed that the death of the child was unnatural, and she died due to smothering. The police registered a murder case and took Khan into their custody.
Puja told police that Khan used to hit the girl whenever she cried for milk.
“Puja and Adil often had arguments over the two-year-old Sonali crying. Frustrated, Khan continued screaming and hitting Sonali,” said an officer. “We have registered the murder case and arrested Khan,” added another official from Bhayander police station. Khan was produced before the court and remanded in police custody.
HinduPost has reported on multiple cases of grooming jihad or love jihad in which Hindu girls get trapped by Muslim men. They leave their families for a relationship that more often than not ends in violence, loss of life or despair. Such incidents are reported almost every day and on multiple news platforms. One can still understand if the girl is lured by someone pretending to be a Hindu, who pretends to ‘marry’ her in a temple before baring his true face. But grown, adult women leaving their families to cohabit with someone from a community that has a serious radicalization problem?
It is beyond understanding that so many Hindu girls are continuously choosing to engage with Muslim men and enter relationships with them, despite heightened awareness and reporting of such cases. What is driving Hindu girls and women towards such risky and reckless behavior?
Is it the secular (another word for de-Hinduized) nature of Hindu households these days, the disassociation from Dharma? The moral decay in Hindu homes that strive to attain a “modern outlook” and adopt a distance from Dharma is apparent. Is it because our religious organisations are failing to instill values and revive meaningful practice of Dharma within our communities, and failing to raise their voice for important socio-political issues concerning Hindus?
Add to it the incessant conditioning by Bollywood movies like Atrangi Re, OTT web series like Bombay Begums and ads like Tanishq’s Ekatvam? Not to forget, the constant dismissal of the grooming jihad epidemic by liberal mainstream media and elite opinion makers.
The number of Hindu girls eloping with Muslim men is increasing significantly. While a minor can be lured onto the wrong path by a cunning Muslim man plotting grooming jihad, in this case Puja was an adult woman. She was married, already had a child and was carrying her second child when she decided to elope with a Muslim man. Adil is 21, while Puja is 22, hence it becomes difficult for one to believe that this was entirely Adil’s plot.
Such Hindu women, bereft of Dharmic values, drawn by dreams of a Bollywood romance, are equally to be reprimanded and we must not shy away from blaming them. 2-year-old Sonali was killed brutally, just because she asked for milk from her mother’s Muslim lover, while her elder sister continues to live safely with her father.
If Puja had witnessed Khan hitting her child when she asked for milk earlier as well, why did she still continue to stay with him? That is because the relationship between a non-Muslim woman and an Islamist man is often dominated by the man and is a toxic one. It becomes difficult for the woman to come out of such a relationship. She left her husband but couldn’t leave Khan.
Unfortunately, a toddler had to die to pay the price of her mother’s moral decay.
Correction
An earlier version of the article had used an incorrect featured image. The error is regretted.
The Karnataka High Court has refused to entertain the petitioner’s plea to provide interim relief in the hijab case and referred it to a larger bench. During the hearing the petitioner’s lawyer, a Congress man, shamelessly lied that the girls wearing hijab were made to sit separately and termed it as religious apartheid. He had quoted Quranic verses in the court to argue why hijab should be allowed in institutions. He said that as per Quran, menstruating women are not allowed to show any part of their body to strangers except hands and face.
After a PU-University college in Karnataka had banned wearing hijab inside college after other students protested against it. The Muslim girls who have started wearing hijab all of a sudden, reportedly incited by Campus Front, and filed a petition in the Karnataka HC seeking to allow wearing hijab inside classrooms. Advocate Devdutt Kamat had appeared as counsel for the petitioners and argued by quoting a hadith in the court. He argued that wearing hijab is an essential practice of Islam and that it is protected by the right to privacy.
Revealing that he is a Brahmin he asked “My son wears Namam to school. Can the school tomorrow say it affects public order?”. He argued that secularism practiced in Bharat is different, a so-called positive secularism. He claimed that it allows students to wear Namam(Tripundra), hijab or cross. He conveniently neglected the fact that, the very minorities seeking religious freedom to wear hijab, are immune from having to extend the same courtesy to Hindus in institutions run by them. He read the Quranic verse 24.31 which mandates that the neckline should not be revealed to anyone other than husband.
It is not correct for a woman after she starts menstruating to show her hands and face to strangers: Kamat referring to hadith mentioned in the Kerala HC judgment.#KarnatakaHijabRow#Hijab#HijabRow
He went on to claim that hijab wearing students were made to sit in a separate class and termed it as religious apartheid. In truth, the girls who were protesting were allowed to go inside the campus. Education minister BC Nagesh clarified that it was the students who chose to sit in a separate classroom and continue their protest. Yet Kamat shamelessly repeated the lie perpetrated by media in the court and drew parallel with racial discrimination in the US. He referred to Brown vs Board of Education on segregation of black and white students in the US and argued that making hijab wearing girls sit in a separate class violates rights guaranteed under Article 14. However the AG objected to it and refuted the claim as a baseless one.
Thread
1. Do you know that lawyer Devadatt Kamat, who appeared in Karnataka High Court to support Hijab is a congress member?
In this small thread let me tell you about his association in other few cases too. pic.twitter.com/M2Tdruzs1m
Devadatt Kamat appears to be a Congress member and has frequently appeared for Congress and its allies in many cases. He argued for Mumbai police in the media trial in the Sushant Singh Rajput case. He represented Mumbai police in Shiv Sena’s vindictive TRP case against Arnab Goswami and Republic TV. He also appeared as the counsel of Congress, Shiv sena, and NCP in the issue of formation of Maharashtra government. Recently he has been appointed as the chairman of the Congress legal coordination committee for the UP election. It appears that Congress has once again joined hands with Breaking India Forces to foment trouble in the country by disturbing communal harmony and gain through it in the elections.
A Delhi-based Supreme Court lawyer on Tuesday wrote to Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman and Union Minister of Commerce and Industry Piyush Goyal seeking de-registration of Hyundai India, KIA India, KFC India and Pizza Hut India over their offensive statements on social media regarding the union territory Jammu and Kashmir.
“Recently, the said companies have posted on their social media accounts offensive statements and posts challenging the sovereignty of our country,” Advocate Vineet Jindal wrote in his letter.
On February 5, Hyundai Pakistan called for the ‘freedom of Kashmir from India’ through its official Twitter channel in Pakistan. The day is observed by Pakistan as the ‘Kashmir solidarity day’.
The Bharatiya Twitter users, livid after this obnoxious propaganda by Pakistan, began criticising Hyundai on social media, forcing the parent company to issue a response.
“Hyundai Motor India has been committed to the Indian market for more than 25 years now and we stand firmly for our strong ethos of respecting nationalism. The unsolicited social media post linking Hyundai Motor India is offending our unparalleled commitment and service to this great country. We have a zero-tolerance policy towards insensitive communication and we strongly condemn any such view,” the statement from Hyundai read.
Not only Hyundai but its subsidiary Kia too had tweeted similar things.
Pizza hut Pakistan shared a post on its Instagram account that read, “This Kashmir solidarity day, let’s join hands and stand united for the freedom of our Kashmiri brothers and sisters.”
KFC PAK also made a similar Twitter missive.
Jindal told IANS that the statement made by Hyundai India is a mere condemnation of its own act and does not support the acceptance of the offence and the statement is not an apology for the grave offence made publically.
The Advocate also sought an immediate registration of an FIR under sections 121A, 153, 153a, 504, 505 of the Indian Penal Code and the Information Technology Act . He has also forwarded his letter to Delhi Police commissioner Rakesh Asthana.
Jindal said that the controversial post targeting the sovereignty of Bharat’s by these multinational companies to gain business profit in Pakistan is highly deplorable. “These MNC’s have intentionally made atrocious statements on public platforms accessed by millions of users to challenge the sovereignty and integrity of India and their act can cause national riots, communal disharmony and is an act of waging war against India,” he said.
Earlier in the day, Rajya Sabha MP Priyanka Chaturvedi took up the issue in Parliament and without naming any company said the content “they have posted on their platforms calls for freedom for Kashmir.”
“These companies are doing business both in Bharat and Pakistan, yet have posted content in solidarity with Pakistan over Kashmir. Such posts that are challenging the sovereignty of our country should not be acceptable. It has been surprising that it has been ignored till now. And also keeping in mind that these companies have been flourishing in Bharat for the past many years yet choosing to take stances that are contentious is unacceptable,” the Parliamentarian said.
Chaturvedi demanded that the government should ensure that these companies apologise unequivocally for the seditious posts and “further ensure that companies operating in Bharat do not challenge the sovereignty of the country.”
Responding to Shiv Sena MP’s demand, Union Minister Piyush Goyal said the government has asked the company to be more forceful in unequivocal apology.

Why do distorians like Audrey Truschke twist history and try to link Hindutva to Nazism without proof, but never discuss factual evidence of how the Nazi regime allied with Muslim groups? Thousands of Muslim soldiers fought in the Axis army and Adolf openly admired Islam.
Albert Speer, who was Reich Minister of Armaments wrote a memoir called “Inside the Third Reich”, in which he records Adolf’s views on Islam. The German leader didn’t just admire Islam, he wished that ancient Germans had converted to Islam instead of Christianity.
Speer refers to Adolf’s talks with the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem, Amin al-Husseini in Nov. 1941, to discuss shared interests. As a result of that meeting, Husseini would help the Secret Service by raising a group of thousands of Muslim volunteers to serve the German Army.
Al-Husseini (Arafat’s ancestor) joined the payroll as a secret agent and instigated a pro-Nazi coup in Iraq later. He actively urged regimes in Europe to transport Jews to death camps. He trained several Muslim brigades for Adolf’s army and funneled their loot into Arab countries.
In his talks with Husseini, Adolf openly regretted that Germany did not become Muslim in the 8th c. during Battle of Tours, when Islam almost conquered Europe. He believed Arabs were racially inferior, so Islamized Germans could have headed the global Muslim Empire.
In “Hitler’s Table Talk”, a collection of his private, informal words behind closed-doors that were recorded by his closest Nazi aides, Adolf repeatedly expressed contempt for Christianity as a “Jewish invention,” & openly admired Islam, wishing Germans had converted to it.
Historian David Motadel, in his book “Islam and Nazi Germany’s War,” reveals the deep links between the Third Reich and Arab groups. Muslims were treated as allies and explicitly exempted from any racial discrimination by command of the Supreme Leader himself.
The Nazi regime patronized allied Muslims with a wide range of religious policies and propaganda. As early as 1941, the Wehrmacht distributed the military handbook “Islam” to train its soldiers to behave well towards Muslim populations. Many admired Adolf as a hero.
They ordered the rebuilding of mosques, prayer halls, and madrasas to mobilize Muslims. The Wehrmacht army and paramilitary SS recruited tens of thousands of Muslim soldiers to fight on all fronts. They were granted religious concessions and exempted from the ban on ritual slaughter.
Muslims in Syria publicly hailed Hitler as a hero in 1940. Evidence indicates that Nazis also forged an alliance with Arab nationalists to plan to extend the Holocaust to the Middle East. Mufti Al-Husseini was funded to create unrest in Palestine & later sponsored Arafat.
Truschke completely ignores historical facts about the alliance between Muslim groups and Nazis; based on Anti-Semitism. Instead, she demonizes Hindutva, using guilt by association, without any proof. Her motivated attacks and lack of scholarship indicate a clear malafide agenda.

Karnataka 'Hijab' row: Teacher Manjunath Naik beaten with iron rod, injured girl student being taken away
The ‘hijab’ row instigated by PFI’s student wing CFI has now taken the usual turn of all Islamist protests. Despite administration’s appeals to the protesting Muslim girl students to approach the appropriate committee if they wanted to discuss a change to long-standing school/college dress norms, the Islamists moved their campaign to phase 2 – violence.
Stone-pelting by Islamists and police lathi charge has been reported from various parts of Karnataka. A teacher, Manjunath Naik, was attacked with iron rods causing severe head injuries in Banahatti town of Bagalkot district. His condition is said to be serious. “I was crossing the road when a group of people attacked me with iron rods on my head. I couldn’t realize what was happening,” a bleeding Manjunath Naik explained to media persons. He was taken to hospital by the police later.
One video has emerged showing a Hindu girl student, who appears to have suffered a head injury in stone-pelting by the pro-hijab mob, being carried away to safety while her friends follow on looking distressed.
Leftists are showing you a video of girl student in niqab & boys students in saffron scarves and they're shouting religious slogans to each other.
They won't show you video of this girl student who injured in violence over hijab row.
In Government Pre-University College of Rabakavibanahatti in Banhatti, a group of Muslim men pelted stones on the college and Hindu students in the presence of police. Few students and people have suffered minor injuries, as per sources. The local police were forced to do a lathi charge to control the situation.
In another incident, it was reported that Hindu students wearing saffron stoles were threatened by some people and police had to intervene.
In Bapujinagar Government Pre-University College in Shivamogga, stones were pelted at the college and police had to resort to lathi charge. At IDGS govt college in Chikkamagluru, pro-hijab demonstrators threw stones at private buses near the junior college. Numerous students are feared to have been injured as a result of the stone-pelting in these locations.
Rumours were spread that Hindu students had brought down the tricolor to hoist the saffron flag in the First Grade Degree College and PG Research Centre in Shivamogga. Authorities clarified that the ‘Bhagva Dhwaj’ was hoisted on an empty flag post. On Wednesday morning, NSUI (Congress student wing) members entered the college in violation of curfew orders in Shivamogga district, and pulled down the saffron flag. Police rushed to defuse the situation.
At the Mahatma Gandhi Memorial College in Udupi, a face off between the two groups of students led to stone pelting in which 3 students were injured. There was chaos at the entrance of Shanteshwar Pre-University College in Indi town, Vijayapura district too. A third group wearing blue stoles and chanting “Jai Bhim” slogans in support of the pro-hijab group was seen here.
In Mandya PES College, a girl student clad in burqa raised ‘Allah ho Akbar” slogans and the Hindu students responded with slogan of ‘Jai Sriram’.
Pro-Pak slogans and teargas shells fired in Harihar, Davanagere district
Violence was also reported from Davanagere and Harihara twin cities where prohibitory orders have now been clamped. Police fired teargas shells and carried out a baton charge to quell the violent mob in the Harihar First Grade College campus in Davanagere district. According to eyewitnesses, several policemen and students were injured in the violent incident. Many two-wheelers have been damaged and a tense situation prevails in the Davanagere town.
The trouble started when a group of people came to the college in support of the hijab. The group got into an argument with the students wearing saffron shawls and soon the situation turned violent. Police rushed to the spot and asked the mob standing outside to move out of the college area. The group of outsiders did not budge and refused to move claiming claimed that they have to ‘protect’ the hijab-wearing students. Soon, stone pelting began. To quell the mob, police fired teargas and carried out baton charge.
The town had witnessed protests on Monday night also after an objectionable social media post. That incident also saw ‘Pakistan zindabad’ slogans being raised.
Police assaults and intimidates Hindu students?
In videos shared by twitter handle @HMSKTK, Karnataka Police and some officials appear to be intimidating a group of Hindu boys wearing saffron stoles.
In another video, Hindu girls students alleged that police was beating Hindu students up while sparing the pro-hijab group. In another video from Mandya, police could be seen asking Hindu students to remove their saffron stoles.
While the allegations of police bias should be probed fully, such behavior wouldn’t come as a surprise. Whenever faced with a tricky situation or communal polarization, the secular state’s first instinct is always to suppress Hindus or ask them to ‘tolerate’ things in interest of harmony.
Conclusion
As per the information of the Karnataka Home department, confrontation and violent incidents broke out in 7 colleges of 5 districts in the state. Protests have been staged in 55 colleges of 19 districts in Karnataka.
The police have arrested 15 persons and sent them to judicial custody in Shivamogga and Bagalkot districts in connection with Tuesday’s violence.
A handful of girls who have openly stated “hijab is our first priority, education comes second” and the Islamists puppeteering this entire episode have been allowed to hijack the education of lakhs of Karnataka students, just when schools were getting back on track after a disruptive pandemic.
And in all this, our liberal elites have been found hypocritically cheering and egging on the Islamic fundamentalists endangering education of all our youth, while slandering those Hindus who are merely demanding adherence to a uniform dress code in government junior colleges (high schools).
The burqa-clad Muslim girl who shouted “AllahuAkbar” in Mandya is the toast of liberals on SM, but the victims of the violence unleashed over these protests such as Manjunath Naik and the injured girl student who had to be carried away to safety will remain faceless and voiceless for our MSM.
The National Investigation Agency (NIA) has arrested another accused, Tauheed Ahmad, in its ongoing probe into the conspiracy by terror groups to carry out IED blasts in Uttar Pradesh.
The NIA took up the probe from UP Anti-Terrorist Squad (ATS) in July last year.
So far, NIA has filed a charge sheet against five arrested accused — Minhaz Ahmad, Museeruddin, Shakeel, Moid and Mustaqeem. They were said to be in touch with terror outfit Ansar Ghazwat-ul-Hind (AGuH), an auxiliary of al-Qaida.
The ATS had claimed that the accused were planning to trigger blasts around Independence Day celebrations in 2021.
Investigators had recovered an IED in the form of a pressure cooker bomb from the Lucknow residence of an accused.
NIA said that accused Tauheed Ahmad Shah was arrested from Manchowa, in Budgam district of Jammu and Kashmir.
“Investigation has revealed that the arrested accused Tauheed was the mastermind of the conspiracy for recruitment and to commit terrorist acts in the name of AGuH, including procurement of arms, ammunitions and explosive materials to be used for attacks in UP,” the NIA sources said.
Sources said that during the questioning with the arrested accused Minhaz Ahmad and Museeruddin, the name of Tauheed Ahmad had cropped up.
On the basis of electronic surveillance, it was established that the earlier arrested five accused were also in touch with Tauheed and were given explosives and arms to be used in attacks at different places in UP.
Minhaz Ahmad was radicalized online by two al-Qaida terrorists based in Jammu and Kashmir and he had entered into a conspiracy with them for recruiting members for AGuH and for committing terrorist acts. Minhazthen recruited Museeruddin into al-Qaida fold and involved him in the conspiracy for committing terrorist acts in UP, the NIA said.
Museeruddin and Minhaz Ahmad procured arms, ammunition, explosive material and conducted reconnaissance of vulnerable areas for carrying out blasts with an intention to wage war.
