Muslim men and youth alike have been targetting Hindu girls and women for kidnap, rape, conversion and murder. These are being reported in social media every now and then.
But what is the reason behind?
Some inspirational force may be operating as the driving force goading them to commit such targetted crimes.
Hate factor!
