Hindu youth arrested for impersonating Muslim, making derogatory remarks against Hindu voters
Ayodhya: Dhirendra Raghav, a Hindu youth, has been arrested after a video surfaced online showing him wearing a skullcap and pretending to be a Muslim while making derogatory remarks about Hindu voters in Ayodhya, Uttar Pradesh. The video quickly went viral on social media, sparking widespread outrage.
In the video, Raghav refers to himself as a Muslim and criticizes Hindus in Ayodhya as "two-faced." He asserts that if Congress leader Rahul Gandhi had come to power, he would have granted reservations to Muslims. Raghav further claims that if a leader had built a mosque for Muslims, they would have voted for him indefinitely. He also criticizes the Hindu community for not supporting Prime Minister Narendra Modi despite his contributions.
This incident comes in the wake of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) losing in Ayodhya, shortly after Prime Minister Modi inaugurated the Ram Temple at the site of the demolished Babri Masjid.
Raghav was arrested by New Agra Police on charges of "provoking and breaking religious harmony" and "inciting hate."

AIITA welcomes Karnataka’s ban on obscene songs in school events
Bhatkal: The Karnataka unit of the All India Ideal Teachers Association (AIITA) has welcomed the Karnataka government’s decision to strictly ban school children from dancing to obscene songs during educational and cultural programmes in government, aided, and private schools across the state.
AIITA Karnataka State President M. R. Manvi congratulated the government for taking what he termed an important step to preserve the sanctity of education.
“Such decisions to safeguard the dignity of school children and uphold the values of education are the need of the hour. This rule should not be limited to government schools alone but must be strictly implemented in all private educational institutions as well,” he said.
He further urged the government to address other concerns within school programmes.
“The government should not only prohibit obscene dances in the name of school anniversaries, but also ensure that plays and dialogues that incite religious hatred are avoided. Schools should be centres of harmony, not platforms for spreading hatred,” he added.
According to a recent circular issued by the Department of School Education and Literacy, obscene dances are adversely affecting the mental health and moral values of students.
In this regard, schools have been advised to use songs that promote nationalism, positive thinking, the greatness of Kannada culture, and value-based traditions instead of inappropriate content during programmes.
The circular also emphasises that students should be dressed in decent attire.
AIITA also backed the department’s warning that disciplinary action would be taken against head teachers if such guidelines are violated. The association has further demanded that district Deputy Directors of Public Instruction strictly monitor the implementation of these rules.
