Incitement to violence / Hate
Arbab Ali @arbabali_jmi
I had gone to cover the Hindu Mahapanchayat at Burari Ground in Delhi today. The event was called by Save India Foundation. Yati Narsinghanand, Pinky Choudhary, Sushil Tiwari, Suresh Chahvanke and Preet Singh were there.
They were spewing venom and making communal speeches.
and I were taking interviews of people. Suddenly, a group of right-wingers came to us and snatched our cameras and phones. They asked us our names. When Meer and I told them our name, they called us jihadi.
They then asked for our media cards, IDs and made us delete the videos and photos in our phones. They made us sit at a separate stop, more than 50 police personnel were there but they didn’t budge. They then attacked Meer on the head and pushed me around.
The mob started saying that “we should be beaten for this” as if covering the event was a crime and being Muslim is a crime.
We showed them our IDs but they still threatened us. Two policemen came to take us but the mob didn’t allow them. Both of us were again manhandled. Two female police officers and two male policemen in plain clothes came to us and forcefully took us away to a secluded place.
The police men were pushing both of us. We had no idea who they were. We thought they were also part of the Hindu mob and would soon attack us. We both were followed by around a mob of 150 right-wingers. They were calling us and saying that we’ll be beaten
The police men pushed both of us in the police van and the mob surrounded the van and were trying to push their way into the van. @MeghnadBose93
came inside the van and asked the police to take us away. Suddenly, the van door was opened and a right winger came inside and punched the policeman sitting next to us. An injured @mdmeharban03 and another journalist came inside the police van. The police took us away to Mukherjee PS. I heard one of the mobster say “Inka peeche karo”.
We waiting in the PS for an hour and later were given two police escort cars to escort us home. We left with the escorts for home but have been called back as the matter has reached the SP.
We are barely holding ourselves. On the first day on Ramadan, something like this has happened.
Yati Narsinghanand ने अब Delhi के Burari में दिया भड़काऊ भाषण, पत्रकारों से बदसलूकी का आरोप https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BJyqJnlwdbs Apr 3, 2022

Hate speech case: If said with smile, no criminality, says Delhi HC Sofi Ahsan March 26, 2022 https://indianexpress.com/article/cities/delhi/hate-speech-case-if-said-with-smile-no-criminality-says-hc-7836774/
The court was hearing CPI(M) leader Brinda Karat’s petition against a lower court order in which the prayer for registration of FIR against Union Minister Anurag Thakur and MP Parvesh Verma for their alleged hate speech was declined.
“Were they election speeches? Was that an election speech or speech in ordinary time? If any speech is given during election time, then it’s a different thing. If you’re giving a speech in the ordinary course, then it is instigating something. In the election speech, so many things are said by politicians to politicians… that is also a wrong but I have to see the criminality of the act,” said the court... It added that otherwise thousands of FIRs may be lodged against all politicians during elections: “If you’re saying something with a smile then there is no criminality, if you’re saying something offensively then criminality. You have to check and balance. Otherwise, I think 1,000 FIRs may be lodged against all politicians during elections.”
“Because we are also in democratic … you also have the right to speech and all these things.

Five former chiefs of staff of the armed forces and over a hundred other people including veterans, bureaucrats, and prominent citizens have written to President Ram Nath Kovind and Prime Minister Narendra Modi regarding "open call of the genocide of Indian Muslims" at various events, most recently in Uttarakhand's Haridwar and Delhi.

"What happened in Amravati shows a spontaneous reaction from Hindus who have decided that they will not get beaten up (any more). https://economictimes.indiatimes.com/news/india/amravati-riots-is-a-spontaneous-reaction-of-hindus-says-bjp/articleshow/87706761.cms It's not a case of issuing a threat, but we have a culture of telling the truth,"

Hate Speech Maharashtra
PUCL Maharashtra has decided to showcase information on Hate Speech in Maharashtra as presented in the different websites, social media of Civil Society organisations and concerned individuals. Each one has their own style of documentation and each one is a shining node. We hope to have a decentralised platform which will valorise whatever work individuals an organisations are doing, such that while they do their regular work of posting, creating websites, blogs, data directories, such that it can be searched, and researched, and help activist (information activist, if you will) curate this content into learning modules, state of the art reports.. letting a thousand nodes glow.
