Many villages in Uttarakhand ban entry to Muslims
|
Dehradun (Uttarakhand) – In some villages of Uttarakhand, locals have decided to ban Muslims from entering. The villagers unanimously put up a ‘no entry’ board outside their village. A clear instruction has been given to Muslim hawkers not to enter the village. Violators of this rule will be charged a fine of Rs 5,000. Locals clarified that this decision was taken for the safety of Hindu women.
Villagers have been advised to nab any suspicious person seen without an identity card and hand him over to the Police. Most of these villages are from the Rudraprayag District of the State. The villagers of Gaurikund, Triyuginarayan, Mekhanda, Shersi and Nyalsu have put up these boards outside their villages.
1. Since September 8, these boards have been widely circulated on social media.
2. In Nandprayag area of Chamoli District, a Muslim barber committed an obscene act with a minor Hindu girl. The local Hindus have been enraged over this.
3. That is why the villagers, with the support of Hindu organisations, decided to ban the entry of Muslims coming from outside.
4. Many Muslims and left-wing people have opposed this initiative of the villagers.
Message on the boards
On the board outside Gaurikund village, it is written that non-Hindus or Rohingya Muslims and hawkers are prohibited from doing business or roaming in the village. Punitive and legal action will be taken against them if found anywhere in the village.
Pain of Hindus in Shersi village
In this regard, the villagers of Shersi village said that most of the time the men of the village stay outside the house and travel to different cities to earn their bread. So, there are only women in the house. People without any identity card, come to the village. There is a temple in the village, which is never locked. Thefts have occurred in this temple. A jewellery shop was also looted some time ago. People have become alert due to such incidents. The villagers have said that this board has been put up for public awareness.

Editorial PerspectiveIt is shameful for all party Governments that the citizens have to take such a decision to protect themselves, as the Governments so far did not take strict action against those who targeted Hindu women. |
