India: Hindu event calling for genocide of Muslims sparks outrage

Al Jazeera  

Police file case after videos go viral on social media of a meeting in which Hindu religious leaders called for mass killings and use of weapons against Muslims. Indian police said on Friday they had launched a hate-speech investigation into last week’s event in Haridwar, in northern Uttarakhand state, in which participants called for the mass killings and use of weapons against Muslims. The woman in the video reportedly added that Indians should “pray to Nathuram Godse”, the Hindu hardliner who assassinated Indian independence icon Mahatma Gandhi in 1948. Another delegate, Prabodhanand Giri – the head of a hardline Hindu group who is often photographed with senior BJP members – called for a “cleansing” and for those present to be “ready to die or kill”.
