Shri Bajrang Sena leader Hitesh Vishwakarma, speaking at an organisational meeting, delivered a speech promoting the anti-Muslim conspiracy theory of “love jihad.” He accused Muslim men of manipulating and “trapping” Hindu girls and claimed that his organisation had rescued over 900 children from such cases. He added that they are campaigning to declare the cow as “Rashtra Mata” (Mother of the Nation) and working to establish the country as a “Hindu Rashtra.”
