At a Hindu Mahapanchayat organised by Hindu nationalist organisations, speakers targeted the Muslim community and peddled conspiracy theories such as “love jihad,” “land jihad,” and “demographic dividend.” A speaker fearmongered over the Muslim population in the state and questioned why people were selling land to Muslims. Another urged attendees to rent out shops and conduct business exclusively with Hindus, claiming this would ensure that money would not be used to fund “jihad.”
