Muslim street vendor pushed away from the Hindu locality by Hindu women


Two street vendors were selling their cloths in a Hindu locality. Local women stopped them. They asked them to show their Identity cards. The street vendors tried to know why they need to show their ID cards, women replied they wanted to know who all are visiting the locality. One of the street vendors gently brought out his Aadhaar card that shows his name, Naeem. After seeing his name, the women immediately asked him to leave the locality and not to appear in their locality again. When Naeem was leaving the place, the women taunted “killings happening in Kashmir after checking ID, should not we at least check ID before buying anything”. Women allowed other street vender as he was a Hindu. Later a Facebook post from the official page of Hindu Jagran Manch, Himachal Pradesh, praised the hate filled act of the women and urged others to follow the same.
