Communal tensions in Madhya Pradesh seem to be on the rise, as Hindu organizations’ confrontations with Muslims continue to escalate. In the most recent incident, a case of misbehaviour and a scuffle involving Shahr Qazi and a Muslim woman has come to light, resulting in a riot by pro-Hindu organizations. The local police have registered an FIR against both the accused parties and the Shahr Qazi.
According to reports from Journal Mirror, the incident unfolded in the Silver Park Colony of Dewas district last Thursday when a group of 6-7 boys, reportedly affiliated with a Hindutva organization, began making lewd comments at a Muslim woman passing by.
The woman, who was subjected to this distressing act, happened to be acquainted with the junior Qazi of the district. Upon receiving information about the incident, Qazi Abul Kalam and several local residents immediately gathered at the scene, sparking a protest against the offenders.
