At the Purnagiri Border Darshan event organised by VHP-Bajrang Dal, a speaker fearmongered about Muslims in the region, accusing them of illegally occupying Hindu land and setting up puncture repair shops and mazars on public property. He also peddled the conspiracy theory of “love jihad”, claiming that after the creation of Pakistan, Muslims planned to build the next Pakistan through children born to Hindu women. He further asserted that while Hindus view the world as one family, Christians and Muslims imagine worlds where only followers of their respective faiths can exist.
