In yet another instance of violence targeting minority communities in India, a Muslim educator faced a physical assault at the hands of a Hindutva mob in Ahmedabad.
A widely circulated video on social media depicts multiple individuals attacking the teacher while police and members of the media were present.
The assault on the Muslim teacher stemmed from their involvement in organizing an event centered on religious tolerance, featuring portrayals of Muslim prayers. The school’s principal explained that this event was planned as a welcoming gesture for a newly enrolled Muslim student, admitted through an educational initiative.
