"Hate Speech Beda" based in Bengaluru on Monday submitted a complaint to the officer of the Commissioner of Police, seeking registration of FIR against Anil Vij, Minister of Home, Health, Urban Local Bodies, Medical Education and Research, AYUSH, Technical Education and Science Technology of Haryana. As per the complaint, the tweet posted on 15.02.2021 by Anil Vij in Hindi, literally translates to "Whosoever has the seed of anti-nationalism in their minds, they should be completely exterminated, whether it's #Disha Ravi or someone else". It is alleged that the tweet is an open call for extermination and encounter of all people who he thinks are "anti-national" and especially Disha Ravi who is an accused in an ongoing investigation.
