Hindu family attacked in Gonda based on a post on social media !Editorial viewpoint Why does the group of secularists, always giving sermons to Hindus on freedom of expression, keep quiet about such attacks ? Or does talking against Hindus and turning a blind eye towards atrocities committed by non-Hindus only mean secularism to these people ? In another incident that occurred on the 10th of October 2022 at Gonda in Uttar Pradesh, the house of a Hindu family in Khargupur area was attacked by some fanatic Muslims to protest against one post on social media.
