Key points of the program
Viral Video Related To The Program…..
Annapurna Maa
• General Secretary of Hindu Mahasabha and Niranjani Akhara Mahamandaleshwar Annapurna said that Muslims will not be allowed to become Prime Minister in 2029. If we want to eliminate their population, then we are ready to kill them and if we kill 20 lakhs of them then we are victorious. Put down the copybook and take up the weapon in your hand.
Dharamdas Maharaj
Dharmadas Maharaj of Bihar can be heard saying that the future of Sanatan Dharma in Islamic India is our subject. 80 percent of the country is Hindu but India is becoming Islamic. Half of India has become Islamic. Where the green flag has been raised, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Bangladesh is out of your hands and the rest 500 Pakistan have been made in the rest. India also has 500 Pakistan.
At least now where you can’t ring the bell… where you can’t take out aarti, puja, procession, religious procession and friends why this happened… when the PM of India speaks in the parliament that first on national resources Which is right That is the followers of Islam. When our PM said this in Parliament, when I had read it or not in the paper, I wish I would have been an MP and had a revolver in my hand and I would have become Nathuram and I would have put six bullets of my six in Manmohan Singh’s chest. . But I am just a common fakir.
Swami Prabodhannad
• Swami Prabodhanand, president of the Hindu Raksha Sena, can be heard saying that Haridwar is a Hindu Dharmanagari, a pilgrimage city. Christmas is celebrated in this city every year on 25th December. I said Christmas will not be celebrated. Eid will not be celebrated and the hoteliers who celebrate Christmas and Eid, save their mirrors. It is not our responsibility to save our hotel. I said you are doing unconstitutional work. We opposed you and your glass was broken, you know. But, certainly, this time Christmas will not be celebrated in Haridwar on 25th December.
Yati Narimanand
• Yeti Narasimhananda said that without taking up arms, no part of the earth can and has never survived. The economy of 40 crores is that of 40 crore people. You are 100 crores, you do not have children here. Financial power went to him. Hindu organizations are not updated. What I was listening to since the age of 9, today I have become old, only then there was talk of economic boycott. The same thing is going on even today, when will be updated and forget about swords. The sword is only going to be used for showing on the forums. The winner in the battle is the one whose weapons are stronger than the enemy. (1:02)
Sagar Sindhu Maharaj
• Sagar Sindhu Maharaj said that I say this again and again. A mobile phone of five thousand will also work, but at least you should have a weapon worth one lakh rupees, and whatever it is about swords, sticks, and sticks, it should be at least in the house at all times. If you go away with your weapon, then something should happen in the house that if someone comes, he should not go back alive.
Swami Parmanand Maharaj
• Swami Parmanand Maharaj said that Dharma cannot be protected without weapons. If you want to protect, the mobile should be of five thousand but the weapon should be of one lakh. Wear a false gold star, those with two hundred, two hundred and fifty, the weapon should be of one lakh. Only the one who resists survives.
BJP leader Ashwini Upadhyay
• BJP leader Ashwini Upadhyay said that it is a matter of shame that the Constitution has to be specially made in Hindi in saffron color in India. By law, this should always be the case.
Swami Prabodhanand
• Swami Prabodhanand said that there is no more delay, now the difference is either be ready to die yourself or be ready to kill, and there is no other option. Because there is no alternative. That’s why you have to carry out this cleanliness drive by taking up arms to the police here, to the leaders, to the army, to every Hindu, like Myanmar. Apart from this, there is no other option. 030
Sindhu Sagar
• Sindhu Sagar Swami said that there are still many villages where Muslims are few. So it becomes the duty of the rich person of that village where 10, 15, 20, 25, 50 people are Muslims, buy their property in that village at the maximum price, and drive them out of the village. The village will become Muslimless. Take recourse to constitutional remedies and I say, sir, all those who are with me, our brothers, I only call them brothers, but in the constitution, they are called SC/ST. So, my brother, at least 10 Muslims have been sent to jail by imposing a false section of SC/ST on them. I am telling the truth. If you can do something, brother. Annoy them very much. Force them to sell their house.
Speaker’s video
• The speaker said that everyone must carry weapons and weapons. So that he can destroy the unrighteous and the heretics. Look, these are the axes, this is to cut the necks of the heretics.
Sindhu Sagar’s video
• Sagar Sindhuraj Maharaj said that- I repeatedly say, save whomever you can. As soon as you go out from here, a notice should go inside the people. If the Hindu religion is accepted, then life can be saved, otherwise, these people can kill and drive us away from here like Myanmar. (25)

हिंदुत्ववादी हमेशा नफ़रत व हिंसा फैलाते हैं।
हिंदू-मुसलमान-सिख-ईसाई इसकी क़ीमत चुकाते हैं।
लेकिन अब और नहीं!#IndiaAgainstHindutva #HaridwarHateAssembly

Strictest action should be taken against those who incite hatred and violence of this kind.
It is despicable that they should get away with making an open call to murder our respected ex-PM and unleash violence against people of different communities…1/2 pic.twitter.com/tNwXn0BS4Z

Congress leader Priyanka Gandhi tweeted, “It is highly condemnable that even after calling for the assassination of our honorable former Prime Minister and calling for violence against people from different communities, they should just survive.”
उत्तराखण्ड के हरिद्वार में 17 से 19 दिसंबर को आयोजित हुए एक कार्यक्रम में भड़काऊ एवं हिंसा के लिए उकसाने वाले भाषणों के वीडियो वायरल होने के बावजूद अभी तक कोई गिरफ्तारी ना होना शर्मनाक है। प्रधानमंत्री, गृहमंत्री व उत्तराखण्ड के मुख्यमंत्री इस मुद्दे पर चुप्पी साधे बैठे हैं।
1/2— Ashok Gehlot (@ashokgehlot51) December 25, 2021
Rajasthan Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot tweeted, “It is shameful that there is no arrests took place so far. Despite the video of provocative and inciting violence speeches at an event held in Haridwar, Uttarakhand from December 17 to 19 got viral.” The Prime Minister, Home Minister, and Chief Minister of Uttarakhand are sitting silently on this issue. In our country, some rogue elements are talking about killing people of a certain community but nobody took action against them. It seems that there the situation a of jungle raj in BJP ruled states. Wherever genocide took place in the world, there were similar provocations and speeches on which nobody took action.

3 days of hate speeches inciting armed violence against Minorities is a flagrant violation of the Constitution and universal human rights.
Such impunity by hate mongers is the hallmark under BJP govts.
Arrest the perpetrators immediately.https://t.co/7CmbC4d7XO pic.twitter.com/hLNuKkKM9N— Sitaram Yechury (@SitaramYechury) December 24, 2021
CPI(M) leader Sitaram Yechury tweeted, “Hate speech inciting armed violence against minorities for 3 days is a gross violation of the Constitution and Universal Human Rights. Such an apology for spreading hatred is the hallmark of the BJP government. Arrest the criminals immediately.
Conclusion
These videos going viral on social media tried to create an atmosphere of fear not only among the Muslims of the country but also among the Christian community. Apart from this, they made every effort to provoke the Hindu majority society of the country. Moreover, they encourage violence against Muslims, their murder, their financial exclusion, etc. The working style of Uttarakhand Police was also under question in this whole matter.
Why did the Uttarakhand Police permit such an event?
Why was the Uttarakhand Police not aware of this program in advance?
How does the Intelligence Department of Uttarakhand Police know about this?
Why did Uttarakhand Police not take any action, taking Suo Moto cognizance of the program?
Why there is no arrest even after three FIRs?
Was the Uttarakhand Police avoiding taking action due to the links of the accused with the ruling party?
After the declaration of hatred in this Dharm Sansad, India’s image has suffered a lot in the country and abroad. From social media to mainstream media, everyone is criticizing India and its law and order.
