Examining Vigilantism and Cow Protection Issues

Forget about small towns and villages, even if you are in Delhi NCR, don't go out for a drive or a maggi at night. It is possible that someone shoots you for no reason, kills you and then comes to apologize says, hmm, I made a mistake Something similar happened to 19 year old Aryan Mishra. On the night of 23rd August, Aryan and his friends go out for a drive, but never return home. Aryan and his friends were going on a Renault Duster In Maruti swift, gau rakshak thought that there was cattle smuggling in Duster They chases the Duster Duster thought some enemy is behind, so they speeded Chase went on for 30 km From Faridabad's Sector 21 to Palwal's Baghola Bullets were fired, Aryan was shot in the back of the head, and then after the car stopped, another bullet was fired in Aryan's arm. After that, they realized that there was no trafficking in the car, family was sitting, then they ran away from there. After investigating the mobile data and CCTV footage, the police arrested 5 people. Varun, Saurabh, Krishna and Adesh, all in their 20s, all from Delhi NCR, living in Faridabad Their leader and the man who was shooting, if you can call him a man, Anil Kaushik, He is around 40 years old. He has his own start-up too Live For Nation, which advocates cow protection. Police say this is first time Anil chased a cow smuggler But Aryan's family members are saying something else. They are saying that you don't drive 30 km behind someone like this, you don't shoot until you have done this work before. It is surprising that such a long chase, firing is done, but no police presence, no police check, no patrolling Police had no information His neighbours know Anil Kaushik as a cow protector. He has worked with the President of the Cow Protection Bajrang Force and the infamous Bittu Bajrangi for many years. He is also known as the Monu Manesar of Faridabad. Monu Manesar is another infamous Narbhakshak, in jail on murder charges After the violence in Nuh, Anil distanced from Bittu Bajrangi and became independent. Maybe business started doing well. Anil Kaushik's mother says that his son is always on the hunt to save animals. People call him and he leaves with his car. Often, police is informed before an operation. And many times, police is with him on such raids. Rajesh Devi believes that this time police were not informed about this mistake by her son. No other mistake was made. Anil Kaushik has also admitted his mistake. When Aryan's father goes to meet him in Faridabad jail in a broken state, Anil falls at his father's feet, apologizes for his mistake. He says that he is deeply sorry, he thought Aryan was a Muslim He could not see behind tinted window, says that he is deeply sorry that he killed a Brahmin. Aryan's father says that he asked Anil if he was a Muslim, would he have killed someone for a cow smuggling? Could have shot at the tyre, called the police But Anil Kaushik had no answer to these questions. Aryan's mother is also asking, is the value of life not so much that you will shoot anyone on the way? Uma Mishra is asking for life imprisonment for her son's killers. Anil Kaushik is saddened by the fact that he killed a Brahmin. The public is saddened by the fact that the car had a 19 year old Hindu in it, not a Muslim. The police came to the scene when they found out that there was no smuggling in the duster, only a family was going If there was a Muslim, if there was smuggling, and if someone had shot bullets then, we would have applauded and said, Well done my boy, well done. The work that the police, the system, the court could not do, you did it. Our soul is so dead now, so much poison has been injected into us that after the accident, we first look for a surname, then decide our outrage meter. We don't look at the person's death. We look at the death of a Muslim or a Hindu Is it death of higher caste or a lower caste, then we get angry. Just like who raped, what was the victim's surname, what was the murderer's caste, was he wearing a cap or not, was he wearing a tilak or not, who is from the ruling party, who is in opposition? Crime is gone to hell. First see if your anger, your bigotry, your hate is proven right or not. After that, we will see what is right and wrong and what is humanity. But no matter how big we become, no matter how much we tighten Abdul, that a system, a country can never function indefinitely with hatred, boycott and arson This is the law. Now, brother, see, like Rahat Indori Sahab was right once and warned us too, this fire of hatred, it doesn't recognize anyone's clothes, it will consume everyone If there is a fire, then it will consume many houses, it's not just our house. This very same fire took Aryan's life, extinguished the light of the Mishra family. But Aryan's death does not reach the newspaper headlines and your outrage meter, if his surname was something else. Just three days before this incident, I am telling you, on 24th August, a Muslim migrant laborer was killed by a mob. The reason for this was that people suspected that he was consuming beef Bullets are being fired on suspicion, lynching on suspicion And after that, the Chief Minister of Haryana, Nayab Singh Sahni says, How can we stop them? They have faith in cows. Now when the state's chief minister himself, the state's police force is covering the cow protectors in this way, then many more Aryan Mishra's lives will be lost in this way. Take this thing as a guarantee. And also take the guarantee that till the time people don't change their dirty thinking, the business of these people will grow Now I have called it the business of narbhakshak, an insult It will be a defamation case. But I am repeating the words of Prime Minister Narendra Modi. See what he said. These people are not cow protectors. These are anti-social elements. I get so angry. Cow worshippers are different Some people who do anti social activity all night wear garb of cow protector in day Those who are coming out as cow protectors, prepare their dossier 70-80% people will be involved in activities not accepted by society, but they wear garb of cow protection Modi Ji had also stressed what is cow protection. Troubling other people is not cow protection Cows are dying for many reasons. Who is protecting them? Most number of cow deaths is because of eating plastic, cow eats plastic in garbage then the cow dies, so those who want to do well, prevent the cow from eating plastic Stop people from throwing plastic, that would also be service of cow In clear language, Narendra Modi had warned us about these people But we did not listen, we did not make dossier and let these people thrive Then when lives were lost we started shouting But we did not see that they are making fun of our religious beliefs and are increasing their power. Was it right? No. But by taking advantage of this faith, a cow mafia has been born in our country. Which has put law and order and humanity at risk, we did not care Some of them have now become social media stars, show their weapons, and their clout. Monu Manesar aka Mohit Yadav, Bajrang Dal member and head of Gauraksha Dal Haryana 2 lakh YouTuber followers, 83,000 Facebook followers, accused of killing Nasir and Junaid, currently in jail. In all other cases, bail has already been granted, may be released Rocky Rana, based in Delhi, is not a movie star. He uploads his assault videos on social media. And here, in the name of social media content moderation, there is nothing He has 92,000 followers on Facebook and more than 20,000 followers on Instagram. He has never been arrested. He has been seen on India TV as a hero and a saviour as well. Once, Babu Bajrangi was infamous in Gujarat. Now Bittu Bajrangi is infamous in Haryana, aka Raj Kumar He is a vegetable vendor by profession. But he is a member of the Cow Protection Bajrang Force. He has created a lot of terror. Even Bajrang Dal and VHP have disowned him. They said, we don't know him. There was violence in Nuh because of him. He was arrested but out in two weeks So, the question is, why is this army being prepared? First, birth them and then raise them If you wanted to keep people's sentiments in mind, then keep them. If you want to make a cow protection law, then do it. But the government keeps offloading everything. Hire a freelancer. Sell all the PSUs. Now, do you want to give the law and order to the freelancer? Seems like it Or is this your new scheme? A shortcut to deal with unemployment. If you flip the pages of history, you will find this kind of army in Germany. Known as Storm Troopers or Brown Shirts Their uniform was of this colour. It was the Nazi Party's paramilitary wing. What did the government do? What did the Nazi Party do? They took out the rioters from the streets and put them in this wing They were not government. But they played an important role in bringing Hitler in the government. Protecting Nazi rallies, destroying other opposition rallies were destroyed. Minorities were tightened. Brown shirts were involved. When Hitler came to power, they were given an official status Today, there is a lot of unemployment in Haryana. 46,000 graduates have applied for cleaning job Such is the situation that 46,000 people are ready to become cleaners. Many youths in Haryana have now taken cow protection as a government job. Police has also joined the movement. Police joins in the raid. They have weapons, they have become dangerous. Agniveers ousted from army might join Who will benefit from this? The political party will benefit from this. Aryan's mother, Uma, goes to press people showing Aryan's photo everyday how he used to put tilak, how he completed the Kanwar Yatra last month how he remembers all the shlokas. But despite all this, the men did not leave him, but killed him. Today, a poster is put up in Aryan's home, his father is not able to understand how his son was snatched from him He is now saying that this business should be shut down. But will this be possible? Is there any political party in the world that can shut down the business of gaurakshak? Maybe not. The poison has gone so deep and now it has become a means of livelihood. But recently, the Supreme Court saw the disgusting truth of the bulldozer justice. After many years, but it was brought up anyway. And said that now a national level policy will be made to stop it. Because if a person is guilty, if he has committed a crime, you cannot forcefully demolish someone's house. If the Supreme Court is able to get up on this, then it is possible that it will see this narbhakshak matter And see how Hinduism is being insulted, how cow protectors have run a business in the name of Hinduism, how murders are happening, extrajudicial killing is happening Maybe suo moto cognizance is taken, some bench of the Supreme Court is set up. This extra-constitutional force that is being formed can spread unrulyness in our society and destroy it. I give a precedent for this. Whenever the Supreme Court or the court takes a decision, there should be a precedent that it has been done before. It is about July 2011. said that the forces in the Naxal-infested areas, which you have put up as special police officers, Koya commandos where you were equipping people, were being trained to counter the Naxals, is unconstitutional When so many years ago the Supreme Court has called an extrajudicial force unconstitutional, then it is not a big deal to declare cow protector as unconstitutional. Whereas, the Koya commandos were very effective in fighting against Maoist insurgency. I went to Dantewada jungle with Koya commandos for two days. And I know how effective they were against Maoist. But the Supreme Court said that the state is responsible for law and order. You cannot freelance it. So, how did you offload cow protectors? If you want to protect cows, do it through police force, not through extra-constitutional force. It is time for Supreme Court to intervene and declare them, who made cow protection their business, as illegal If this doesn't happen, then remember that all are the killers of Aryan. We are, you are, from the Prime Minister to a common citizen. Because this wrong doing is happening in front of our eyes. We have clearly received the warning. But we are ignoring this because our sentiments are involved. But ultimately, they are making fun of our religion. They are also giving our religion a bad name. The decision is in your hands whether you will outrage this or not. If you do then I believe Supreme court will take suo moto cognizance on this and take a strong stance, like taken on bulldozer justice
