Amid Hindu killings, VHP and Bajrang Dal launches helpline for Hindus threatened by 'Islamic fundamentalists'

The VHP and Bajrang Dal have issued helpline numbers in Karnataka, Uttar Pradesh, Rajasthan, Himachal Pradesh, Delhi, Bihar, Odisha, and other states. The VHP has issued helpline numbers for the Hindus to assist them if they want to lodge complaints with the police regarding 'threatening' messages or calls over social media posts.

 

"The VHP and BD activists have released a helpline number Hindu community for Kashi Prant districts. Those getting threats from "Islamic fundamentalists" over their posts on social media, should approach local police station or district administration without any delay and get their complaints lodged and registered," Ashwani Kumar, Prant Prachar Pramukh (Kashi Prant - VHP) said.

 

 

 

The VHP leader said that killings in Maharashtra's Amravati and Rajasthan's Udaipur are being made to spread violence and create an atmosphere of terror in the country and the Hindu community is being threatened with social media posts.

 

"If people of Hindu community seek any sort of assistance from VHP or Bajrang Dal, we will extend all help to them. Efforts were being made to create an atmosphere of terror in the country since the brutal killing of Umesh Kolhe in Maharashtra's Amravati and Kanhaiya Lal at Udaipur in Rajasthan. The Hindu community is constantly being threatened for their social media posts," he said.

Notably, Kanhaiya Lal and Umesh Kohle were brutally killed in Rajasthan's Udaipur and Maharashtra's Amravati for allegedly supporting now suspended BJP leader Nupur Sharma who created a huge controversy with her comment on Prophet Muhammad during a news debate.
