At a Shurya Jagran event organized by the Vishwa Hindu Parishad and Bajrang Dal, a far-right leader delivered a speech steeped in anti-Muslim bigotry and historical distortion. The speaker blamed Muslims and Mughals for societal issues within Hindu communities, including the poor treatment of women and the caste-based occupation system. He demonized Muslims as “sexual deviants” and Islam as the cause of rape in Indian society, claiming, “Rape is a gift of Islam.”
