A visibly shaken Islamist vlogger named Shahbaz Khan from Karnataka, who was angered by the Karnataka High Court’s judgment that banned the hijab in all educational institutions that made the uniform dress code compulsory for all students, took to his social media site to target Hindus as well as BJP leaders including Karnataka Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai with verbal abuse and wild accusations.  

For Khan, all Hindus are sons of prostitutes and the democratically elected CM, a son of a b*tch and a dog. He warned Lok Sabha MP from Mysuru, Pratap Simha, Bengaluru South MP Tejasvi Surya, and Karnataka Minister Eashwarappa that he would come to their houses and slap them with his slippers.

An overzealous Khan declared that he was flush with foreign funds from Islamists living in America, Arab countries, and even bankrupt Pakistan. His handlers were asking him why Muslims in Bharat are silent over the hijab ban and were pushing him to ‘protest’ against the high court order he said thereby revealing the real reason for his rage. 

Khan went on to add that he wants to spit in the face of every BJP leader and the CM. He even challenged the state government to arrest him and added that 5,000 police officers would not be enough. Ultimately, he was apprehended near the Vidhana Soudha, where he was seen protesting/abusing.

Khan abused the CM and his family and added that BJP ‘dogs’ came to power using Muslim votes. He claimed that he was born with the blessings of someone called Hazrat Ali and asserted that Hindus were under Muslim rule for 700 years while adding that Hindus were slaves, even before the Babri Masjid was built. 

His uncultured rant didn’t stop even after he declared wanting to relieve himself in MP Pratap Simha’s mouth. For his support of the hijab ban, Khan’s advice to Pratap was to do whatever he wants, only in front of PM Modi and not against Muslims.  

Khan tried his best to whip up communal passions among Muslims. He asked them how long they would remain silent against the uniform dress code in schools and colleges. He incited Muslims to respond strongly to the state, which he felt was committing atrocities. Khan cautioned Hindus and said that Muslims were united. He threatened Hindus that even he does not know what he might do when he faces Hindus.

The jihadi urged Muslims to join the Bharat Bandh which went off peacefully, all over Bharat, except for a few pockets in Kerala and West Bengal. In those states, the ‘bandh’ was marketed as retaliation for the central government’s privatization plans. In fact, the vast majority of citizens in Bharat did not even know that it was a Bandh on the 28th and life and work went on as usual.  

Incidentally, the platform that arranged his abusive tirade, namely YouTube ‘news media outlet’ AK News Kannada, is still open and is based near the ISKCON Temple in Bengaluru. It needs to be investigated whether they too receive funds to propagate such hatred.

Like his Kerala Islamist counterpart, Siddique Kappan, Khan too claims to be a ‘journalist’. Kappan had Popular Front of India (PFI) support and had received huge amounts from their foreign handlers. Those funds were to be used to create communal tensions in Uttar Pradesh. Like AK News, Kappan’s dirty laundry is handled by ‘news media’ outlets like the Newslaundry.
