In Vidisha district, Madhya Pradesh, several Muslim youths chanted “Pakistan Zindabad” slogans on Independence Day. These youths were reported to have raised pro-Pakistan and religious slogans during the Independence Day celebrations at the Lateri tehsil headquarters.
As the video of the incident spread widely on social media, local BJP leaders submitted a memorandum to the municipal inspector. The police have since detained a student in connection with the case. BJP leader Sanjay Jain noted that an Independence Day program was held at the district campus on August 15.
As the program concluded, some students chanted “Bharat Mata Ki Jai,” while others, identifying as Muslim, shouted “Pakistan Zindabad,” leading to a confrontation. The police detained one student at the scene while the others escaped. The BJP and Bajrang Dal have called for the arrest of the remaining students who raised pro-Pakistan slogans.
Meanwhile, SDOP Ajay Mishra confirmed that a minor has been detained and efforts are underway to apprehend additional individuals. A case has been filed based on the complaints received.
