During a Ram Navami Shobhayatra organised by the Vishva Hindu Parishad (VHP), leader Sohan Solanki claimed that Hindu women in Bengal were being abducted, converted, murdered, forced to commit suicide, and sold in markets worldwide by those he described as “jihadis.” He further alleged that these “demons” were still alive and asserted that Ram and his army should likewise remain active. He also glorified the Ram temple movement and the demolition of the Babri Masjid demolition, congratulating Hindus for it.
