It is estimated that at least 250 Muslim girls and women were gang raped and then burned to death by Hindutva mobs.

Muslim Children were force fed petrol and then set on fire, pregnant women were gutted and then had their unborn child's body shown to them.
An international fact-finding committee formed of all women international experts from US, UK, France, Germany and Sri Lanka reported, "sexual violence was being used as a strategy for terrorising women belonging to minority community in the state."

It was a Hindu-Muslim love story that leapt out of the flames of the #GujaratRiots of 2002 in #Ahmedabad's Naroda Patiya. It then went through the usual tortuous turns, so typically Indian, and the next two years saw the couple fight tough battles and go through waves of pain.
2. The police in Ahmedabad had turned matters worse for the lovelorn couple. @rajkamaljha
3. Even as the Muslim girl was illegally held at a home for the destitute despite turning 18, the authorities and police in #Ahmedabad had remained undecided about who should start her release procedure. #Gujarat #GujaratRiots #2002riots

It is a pincer attack. First plan riots with heavy Islamic funding. Then manage narrative internationally how riots were a "pogrom" against Muslims.

History gets rewritten in front of our eyes. Happened for #Gujarat2002.

This is why the desperation to kill #DelhiRiots2020 book.
When the media's paycheck depends on spin, be sure that they will spin. And so far they have succeeded because Hindus invest in temples not scholarship or narratives. @RajivMessage has been talking about this for years.

Why a small eBook. Let us do a proper book. Has someone even documented the victims properly? Has someone documented the victims of the karsevak massacre by Mulayam?
