Anti-Muslim Hate speeches by Hindutva leaders at Raipur Dharam Sansad


After calls for genocide were raised at the Haridwar Dharma Sansad held between December 17-19, around 20 Hindutva religious leaders met for a similar two-day event in Chhattisgarh’s Raipur on December 25-26 to urge “Sanatani Hindus” to begin preparation for the realisation of the Hindu rashtra. As some leaders asked those who were present at the Sansad to ‘arm’ themselves if they wanted India to become a Hindu rashtra. In targeting minority communities, leaders speaking at the Raipur Dharam Sansad in Chhattisgarh echoed the statements that were made at the Haridwar Dharam Sansad. The Raipur Dharma Sansad was organised by the NGO Neelkanth Seva Samiti and the Doodhadhari Math. It was also attended by Congress leader Pramod Dubey and BJP leaders Brijmohan Agrawal and Vishnu Deo Sai. Neelkanth Tripathi of the NGO Neelkanth Seva Samiti maintained that the event’s organising committee included top Congress and BJP leaders. The focal point of the event was the establishment of a Hindu rashtra.
