At an event organised by the Antarashtriya Hindu Parishad–Rashtriya Bajrang Dal, Hindu spiritual leader Kali Das Bapu glorified the Godhra riots and urged the audience to always be ready for another such incident. The organisation’s president, Pravin Togadia, spread the conspiracy of Hindu demographic decline, falsely citing The Lancet. He declared, “A war is not started for peace; we started a war to finish off our enemies.” He demanded a population control law, called for expelling “3 crore Bangladeshi Muslims,” and urged Hindus to economically boycott Muslims. He glorified violence as “plan B,” praised Israel for killing Muslims, and said Hindu dominance must be maintained “by the stick or the law.”
