Protest Against Anti-Hindu Violence Results in Vandalized Mosque

In late October, shops, homes, and mosques were attacked during a rally in the small Indian state of Tripura. The incident happened during a protest held by Vishva Hindu Parishad (VHP), a right-wing Hindu-nationalist organization, that was supposed to be a response to the egregious violence committed against Hindus in neighboring Bangladesh during the Durga Puja festival earlier that month. The scenes in Tripura are shockingly similar to the violence in Bangladesh that the mob was protesting against. According to the police inspector-general, the damaged shops and houses reportedly belong to families from the local Muslim minority community. Online coverage of the protests and violence in Tripura is trending on Twitter with the hashtag #TripuraMuslimsUnderAttack. Shekhar Datta, a loca journalist, claimed that specific individuals wanted to use the recent events in Bangladesh as an excuse to attack Muslim minorities in India.
