On March 17th, a terrible incident shook the city of Nagpur in Maharashtra, showing the true colors of a Muslim mob that launched a vicious, preplanned attack. In the Bhhaladarpura area, "a Muslim mob molested a woman police officer in the Bhhaladarpura area of Nagpur, Maharashtra, and attempted to disrobe her during the violence by the mob over Hindus demanding the removal of Aurangzeb’s tomb." This wasn’t just a random outburst—it was a calculated move by troublemakers who couldn’t stand Hindus raising their voices for justice. The brave Hindus were simply asking for the removal of Aurangzeb’s tomb, a symbol of oppression from history, when this chaos erupted. The authorities didn’t sit idle; "an FIR has been filed against the rioters at Ganeshpeth police station," making it clear that such lawlessness won’t be tolerated.

In the busy city of Agra, located in Uttar Pradesh, a disturbing event unfolded that has left the local community shaken.

The incident might have gone unnoticed if it weren’t for the CCTV cameras that caught it all on tape.

The troubling news of rape and forced religious conversion seems to be a growing shadow over Rajasthan lately.

In this latest incident, a group of Muslim individuals is accused of gangraping a Hindu minor, leaving the community shocked and angry once again. The details paint a grim picture of a young girl trapped in a nightmare, with no easy way out.

India's cricket team delivered a stunning performance on March 10, defeating New Zealand in the final and securing the prestigious Champions Trophy title. Across the country, jubilant fans took to the streets, celebrating a moment of national pride. However, while millions of Indians rejoiced, the victory appeared to have enraged certain groups. The pattern was once again evident—whenever India triumphs, certain elements within society refuse to acknowledge the glory and instead resort to hostility.

In the quiet village of Sodaladoodha, nestled in Gangadtalai, Banswara, Rajasthan, a powerful wave of change is sweeping through. A church, once a symbol of Christian influence, is being transformed back into a Hindu temple dedicated to the mighty Bhagwan Bhairavji. This isn’t just a random shift—"the Church used to be a temple around 125 years ago", a sacred Hindu space that was taken over by foreign beliefs long ago. Now, it’s being reclaimed. The driving force behind this glorious return is Gautam Garasiya, the church’s former pastor, who, along with 80 Christian families, has chosen to embrace Hinduism again through “ghar wapsi”—a beautiful homecoming to their ancestral faith. Under the inspiring Bharat Mata Mandir Project, this church will proudly stand as a temple once more on March 9, 2025.

In a deeply disturbing incident that has shaken the small town of Moradabad in Uttar Pradesh, a minor Dalit girl was subjected to unimaginable cruelty. The police have taken action and arrested the main accused, a man named Salman, in connection with the gang rape case. However, the story doesn’t end there. Salman’s family has stepped forward, strongly denying all the allegations leveled against him. They claim that their son has been falsely accused, caught up in a web of lies spun due to an old rivalry with the girl’s family. Despite their protests, the police are not taking any chances and are digging deeper into the matter. The investigation is in full swing, with authorities working hard to track down the other three suspects who are still on the run. Meanwhile, the girl’s family has expressed their frustration, saying that the police turned a blind eye to their pleas for help when the girl first went missing, leaving them to fend for themselves in their desperate search.

The small town of Bhilwara in Rajasthan is reeling from yet another horrific crime that has shaken the community to its core. Following the recent uproar over the sexual assault and blackmail case in Bijaynagar, where Hindu girls were targeted by Muslim youths, a new and equally disturbing incident has come to light in Bhilwara. This time, a young woman found herself trapped in a nightmare that unfolded inside a local cafe. It all started back in March 2024 when she visited the cafe with someone she trusted, only to be betrayed in the worst possible way. She was given a drink spiked with drugs, which knocked her out, and then she was gang-raped by the men she was with. To make matters worse, these cruel individuals recorded obscene photos and videos of the assault.

A terrible and heartbreaking incident has shaken the Sagar district of Madhya Pradesh, bringing to light a shocking case of abduction and forced conversion. A tiny, helpless two-and-a-half-month-old infant girl was snatched away from a hospital right after her mother passed away. This innocent child, who couldn’t even speak or understand what was happening, was taken by a woman named Shabana, who belongs to the Muslim community. This woman didn’t just stop at stealing the baby—she went as far as trying to change the little girl’s entire identity through official papers, converting her to Islam in a shameless act of deceit. Thankfully, the State Commission for Protection of Child Rights stepped in, rescued the infant, and placed her in a shelter home where she could be safe from such cruel intentions. The whole episode has left people stunned, raising serious questions about how someone could stoop so low as to target a defenseless baby who had just lost her mother.

In a small village called Makhani, just 8 kilometers away from the Raisen district headquarters in Madhya Pradesh, a troubling situation has unfolded. The Waqf Board, an authority that manages certain properties under Islamic law, has sent out a stern notice to seven families living there. The notice clearly states, "This is the property of the Waqf Board." It doesn’t stop there—it further warns, "Vacate the land within 7 days. If the land is not vacated, legal action will be taken." Naturally, this message has left the families shaken and confused. Frightened by the sudden demand, they didn’t sit quietly. Instead, they gathered their courage, made their way to the Raisen Collector’s office, and poured out their worries to the officials, hoping someone would listen and help them through this unexpected crisis.

On February 26, 2025, a significant and troubling report came to light from Pakistan’s Human Rights Commission of Pakistan (HRCP), shedding a harsh spotlight on the worsening conditions faced by the country’s minority communities. Titled "Under Siege: Freedom of Religion or Belief in 2023/24", this document paints a grim picture of the rising tide of violence, forced conversions, and deeply rooted discrimination targeting Pakistan’s Hindu population, especially in Sindh province. For many, this isn’t just a collection of statistics or distant events—it’s a heartbreaking reality that families and individuals are forced to endure every day, with little hope of change.
