Muslim mob kills two Hindus in India

[sraja]

On Friday July 26, 2013, Many Hindus were injured and 2 people were killed, including a Hindu women who died when Muslim mobs rioted on late Friday. Friday is the day that Muslims hold congregational prayer called Jumu’ah, usually preceded by sermons.

The violent clashes occurred in the Nagla Mal area of Meerut, a city within the Indian state of Uttar Pradesh (UP, and is a few hours away from the capital New Delhi. It has been reported that the violence began when groups of local Muslims were upset that a Hindu temple was playing Hindu devotional songs (bhajans) and forced the loudspeaker to be shutoff while beating a few Hindu men in the temple. Police tried to control the violent mob and is looking for the rioters involved. The governing party of Uttar Pradesh during these riots is the Samajwadi party.

Religious violence and riots are not new to Uttar Pradesh and India during the holy Islamic month of Ramadan as it is a sensitive month for many in the Muslim community . In the past few years there have been similar cases where Muslim mobs have vandalized Hindu temples and injured Hindus due to hearing Hindu religious songs on route to a Mosque or if a religious procession is passing a Hindu temple that is playing music.

A few years prior, a major clash in Aligarh, Uttar Pradesh took place between Hindus and Muslims. The rioting started on night of 5 April when according to some people, members of the Muslim community removed the decorations on a Hindu temple (it was the Hindu festival of Ram Navami) while another version as reported by some media suggests that riots started after some Muslims objected to the overnight celebration of Ram Navami.

Secular riots are OK.

Riots should be dealt with the strictest of strict ways. The punishment should be made so harsh that in future any group should shudder even to think about starting one, doesn't matter be it a minority or majority group. People who starts riot without any reason are criminals.

I think we Indians should to give petition to Govt. to start harsh punishments for riot criminals.

The UP state govt. should be careful lest a severe backlash occurs- such incidents can truly and severely inflame the populace. As to our netas being secular- they have abused that notion, which was meant to provide hitherto unknown freedom, they have abused it and now only use it as a veil to hide their unscrupulous and unprincipled political maneuverings.

Hindus creating mischief by playing Hindu hymns during the holy month. They are baiting the Muslim community in conflict, so they can massacre them.

Not going to happen. Our populace is complacent to the extreme. No petition will ever be backed by the numbers and persistent and dogged pressure required to ensure its implementation. We all saw how the Jan Lokpal thing fizzled out. Wait till the fundoos on the other side use this as the reason to butcher the Muslims- then we'll have come full circle and everyone will be happy. Not to mention that I'll lay all the blame on the authorities- they are the one's who could have stopped this and booked the fools.

I hope the backlash doesn't happen!! I don't understand with such a huge population backing up still why we are so cripple against our Govt.

And what were the police doing when the Hooligans were creating the non sense. Then why do we have police in our country if they come after 2 days of an incident. That's not acceptable at all.

If people of different communities be it Hindu or Muslim, staying in India, not aware how to stay peacefully side by side, then they should be taught and if required a rod should be used while teaching and that's why police is there.

It's time for us to wake up. Youths of India should take charge of the country now.

UP and Bihar need to sort their governance issue out. It sounds like the Wild West in some of their parts.

Hopefully the police will be quick about it and demonstrate to the public that those responsible have been apprehended otherwise UP is a tad bit over the edge anyway due to the approaching elections and any enterprising babu looking for some good old communal politicking points can inflame the whole situation.

Obviously you dont put loudspeakers of Hindu bhajran in a Muslim dominated area and that too in Ramzan

Anyway, Unfortunate loss of life, R.I.P.
