In the days following the incident in which a Muslim-owned shop was ransacked by a Hindutva mob in Himachal Pradesh’s Nahan city, 16 Muslim traders fled the city after intimidation by Bajrang Dal and Vishwa Hindu Parishad, Muslim leaders allege.
In a recent video, Nahan’s Muslim leaders interacted with the media where they warned ‘outsiders’ not to disturb the communal peace between Hindus and Muslims.
“It’s a matter of great shame, but these local leaders have no one to stop them. Outsiders came and looted goods from 4-5 shops. Out of fear, at least 16 people have left their work and moved away. And only one person was at fault,” said one of the Muslim leader.
On June 19, a video surfaced on social media where a textile shop owned by a Muslim was ransacked by a Hindutva mob in the presence of police personnel.
The incident occured after the shopowner named Javed, 24, shared an image of animal sacrifice on his WhatsApp status during Bakrid.
