Agitation against attack by a Muslim
A few days ago, there was a clash between Hindus and Muslims in Malyana village of Shimla. At that time, a person from the Muslim community attacked a local shopkeeper named Yashpal Singh. Yashpal Singh was hit on the head and had 14 stitches on his head. The locals had protested alleging that the Muslim attacker had tried to kill Yashpal Singh. (Hindus are a majority but they get beaten up by Muslims, who are in minority. Hindus must unite if they do not wish to perish – Editor).
