BJP leader and Supreme Court lawyer Ashwini Upadhyay delivered a speech at an event organized by the far-right organization Shivpratishthan Hindustan, where he fearmongered about ‘demographic change’ and ‘Bangladeshi infiltration.’ His speech targeted Muslims, falsely claiming that India has six crore infiltrators and alleging that all Muslims living in Dharavi are ‘infiltrators.’
Upadhyay also led an oath against ‘love jihad,’ ‘land jihad,’ ‘drug jihad,’ ‘infiltration jihad,’ and ‘Dharmantaran jihad,’ pushing unverified conspiracy theories about alleged religious and demographic threats.
