On the microblogging site recently, a video from Kota, Rajasthan, was trending. A bus carrying hajj pilgrims was attacked with stone pelting in Kota by the miscreants, according to many users who posted the footage. The windows being damaged may be seen in several footage from the incident.

However, many people attempted to take a collective perspective and give it a communal angle. When sharing the visuals from the incidents, the verified user Muslim Daily said that the Hindutva group had attacked a bus. Muslim women were threatened with kidnapping, and Muslim passengers were made to chant Jai Shri Ram.

Another twitter user going by the handle name Jaweed mja also made the same claim that Hindutva mob attacked the bus and forced Muslims to chant Jai Shri Ram.

Apart from that the Hinduphobic account centered around casteism, Gabbar0099, sharing the video wrote, “A bus carrying Haj pilgrims attacked by Hindutva mob in Kota, Rajasthan.”

Besides, the Twitter user, Ayisha Muhamad, the Muslim resident of London according to her bio, wrote, “Hindutva radical extremists attacked a bus in Kota, India, which was carrying Hajj pilgrims, including women and children. several pilgrims were injured.

As per another report by Dainik Bhaskar headlined “6 accused of murderous attack arrested: Bike riding miscreants ransacked after overtaking the bus.”

According to the allegation, 25 to 30 individuals boarded a private bus from the cantonment and headed for Jaipur. In the bus were ladies, kids, and senior citizens. These travelers were on their way to Jaipur to do the Haj. Near the Menal Hotel on Bundi Road, the bus driver overtook the bike that belonged to Kalu (Rahul) and Rohit. This infuriated the accused, who then halted the bus with their friends and started doing vandalism. Due to the vandalism, some bus passengers suffered injuries.

Furthermore, police arrested the accused Mahesh Suman (22), Sunil Suman (29), Rohit (21), Anil (22), Naveen Panchal (21) resident of Nayakheda and Rahul alias Kalu (22) resident of Kunhadi. Moreover, none of the reports stated that the passengers were forced to chant Jai Shri Ram.

False and misleading tweets are claiming that a Hindutva mob in Kota, attacked a bus carrying Haj pilgrims are being propagated by anti-Indian and religious hate propaganda accounts.

The truth is that there was a dispute over a bus overtaking the bikes. The issue became so heated that the accused abruptly began throwing stones at the bus. The police have made an arrest. The propagandists are trying to give it a communal angle to incite communal tension and create unrest.
