In a dramatic incident, Bajrang Dal workers confronted two men for allegedly concealing their religious identity while selling food items at a roadside fast-food stall in Uttar Pradesh's Kanpur. Both the men were wearing t-shirt, which had 'Jai Shri Ram' written on it, apparently in a bid to hide their identity.
According to a report by Times of India (TOI), two Bajrang Dal activists visited the eatery owned by one Bauwa Savita to buy snacks and questioned the man's identity. They found the taste of veg kebabs "suspicious" and informed police. The activists got agitated when the accused, upon being questioned by cops, identified himself as Mohammed Kallu.

धोखे से पहचान छिपाकर व्यवसाय करना न केवल गलत है बल्कि लोगों की आस्था का भी अपमान है। सत्य उजागर होना आवश्यक है ताकि समाज में विश्वास बना रहे। ऐसी गतिविधियों पर कड़ी निगरानी और उचित कार्रवाई जरूरी है।

Such a big conspiracy is being hatched. What shame is there in revealing the real identity?

Is the Judiciary sleeping?
This is happening every day while no concrete law is made by the Judiciary to solve this problem.
Instead, they ask states why people are asking for names from street vendors?
Looks like Judiciary is biased towards Muslims!!!
