AHP and Rashtriya Bajrang Dal leader, Gaurav Raghav, delivered a speech warning against alleged “jihadi forces.” He claimed Hindutva was restored through struggle, but alleged that temples continue to be destroyed and cows slaughtered by a community that wants the animal on its “breakfast table” rather than worshipping it. He fearmongered that these forces would loot Hindu homes and “pluck and eat” their children if not stopped. He warned of divine punishment after death for those who fall into “jihad” and fail to protect their faith and families. He urged attendees to arm themselves, invoking Hindu mythological figures to justify violence in the name of Sanatan Dharma.
