Hindu Yuva Vahini leader and former BJP MLA Raghvendra Pratap Singh targeted Muslims in his speech at a Falahaar event. He praised Yogi Adityanath’s actions in Bareilly against the “I Love Mohammad” protestors, describing it as their “thukai and kutai” (assault). He called the protest an attempt to intimidate Hindus and warned that people had “forgotten who holds power” in Uttar Pradesh. Mocking the protesters who faced police brutality, he suggested they come wrapped in tin sheets next time “so they would not feel any pain.”
