Dehradun: Uttarakhand Police booked Hindu Raksha Dal leader Lalit Sharma for threatening the Muslim community by ripping out the unborn children from the womb and killing them.

Days after a Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) functionary, Vinod Kumar, was allegedly murdered in Bairagiwala village under the Sahaspur police station limits in Dehradun, tensions escalated with reports of riots, large-scale violence, arson, and stone-pelting.

Amid escalated tension and communal clashes, Hindu Raksha Dal president Lalit Sharma demanded that the police kill four Muslims for every Hindu killed.

While pointing at the bulldozer that was in the middle of razing down the main accused Imtiaz’s house, Sharma said, “Bulldozers are meant for Muslims, not Hindus.”

“We will even rip the unborn children out of their wombs and kill them,” Sharma was heard saying in the clip. “The Uttarakhand police needs to become like the UP police. Justice here will be bigger than that served for Surya. If one of ours is killed, we will kill four of theirs in retaliation. We won’t spare these people.”

Uttarakhand Bajrang Dal worker Aman Swedia echoed Sharma’s demands, asserting that there should be a funeral procession leaving the accused’s house as well. […] He added, “Their only goal is for Islam to take over. The Islamic conquest begins with seizing Hindus’ homes, raping Hindu girls, engaging in ‘love jihad,’ and killing Hindus.” He claimed that his community only has one request: “A life for a life.”
