From November 12 to 17, 2025, Organiser documented a deeply unsettling rise in targeted attacks, coercion-based religious conversions, grooming of vulnerable Hindu women and girls, abductions, assault on temples, and intimidation of tribal communities. A total of over 30 cases across seven states and neighbouring Bangladesh have been recorded this week alone. These include attempted forced conversions, love jihad cases, temple desecration, sexual assault through identity fraud, abduction of minors, targeted attacks on Hindu devotees, and systematic exploitation of financially weak families. The numbers portray a grim pattern, not isolated events but a continuum of hatred, manipulation, and violence directed at Hindus.
Yet, despite the gravity of these incidents, much of the so-called mainstream media chooses silence. Their editorial blind spots enable perpetrators and leave victims unseen. In contrast, Organiser, as the unwavering voice of Bharat, has taken upon itself the responsibility to bring these stories to the fore, every week, without fail. These reports do not merely document crimes; they reveal an organised ecosystem of predatory behaviour, ideological aggression, and community-targeted crimes that must be acknowledged, confronted, and addressed with urgency.
Case you should know
Among the many disturbing incidents this week, the violent attack on Chamunda Mata Mandir in Chamba (Himachal Pradesh) stands out as one of the most heinous and alarming. On November 12, a mob of around 25 armed Islamists stormed the historic temple, attacking Hindu devotees inside the sanctum during prayer. Witnesses recount that the invaders, armed with wooden sticks and weapons, barged into the temple, hurled anti-Hindu abuses, and mocked revered deities while beating the devotees brutally. Three young Hindu men were grievously injured; one fell unconscious inside the temple premises. Locals rushed them to Chamba Medical College, while one of the attackers was overpowered and handed to police. The rest managed to flee, fuelling fury and fear among residents.
What makes this case particularly chilling is not only the violent desecration of a sacred Hindu temple but also the sheer brazenness with which the assailants operated, storming a sanctum, assaulting worshippers, insulting gods, and attempting to spark communal panic. Hundreds of locals and Hindu organisations immediately gathered for protests, leading to an intense stand-off at the Chamba City Police Post. The anger was so widespread that the SP himself had to intervene, deploying a Quick Response Team to control tensions. The incident signals not just an attack on individuals but an attack on the Hindu civilisational identity of the region, an assault aimed at terrorising the community spiritually, psychologically, and socially.

1. Tribal sisters targeted in conversion plot by Muslim family in Sonbhadra
A shocking case of predatory proselytisation has emerged from the Duddhi region of Sonbhadra district, Uttar Pradesh, where a tribal Hindu girl and her three sisters were allegedly pressured to convert to Islam and marry into a Muslim family. The prime accused, Bahadur Ali, along with his wife Razia, son Azmat Ali, and associates Abdul Subhan and Nasimuddin, reportedly visited the girls’ home repeatedly, offering money, land, and a house in exchange for conversion.
When the victims refused, the harassment intensified. One of the girls was followed in a vehicle on her way to college, threatened with death and even an acid attack. The family, already burdened by poverty and the father’s disability, lived under constant fear as intimidation grew. Police have registered a case and the investigation is underway under the supervision of Duddhi Circle Officer Rajesh Rai.
2. Armed Islamists attack Hindu devotees, desecrate Chamunda Mata mandir in Chamba
A violent communal assault rocked Chamba town in Himachal Pradesh on November 12, 2025, when an armed mob of around 25 Muslims stormed the historic Chamunda Mata Temple and attacked Hindu devotees inside the sanctum premises. Witnesses reported that the assailants, carrying sticks and other weapons, hurled anti-Hindu abuses, insulted revered deities, and brutally beat three Hindu youths present for prayer.
The sudden assault left the victims severely injured. Locals rushed to rescue them and admitted them to Chamba Medical College and Hospital. Eyewitnesses said the attackers not only assaulted the devotees but also mocked Hindu gods and goddesses, trying to create panic and defile the temple’s sanctity. One of the perpetrators was caught by local youths and handed over to the police, while others managed to escape.
The attack sparked massive outrage among local residents and Hindu organisations, who staged protests outside the Chamba City Police Post, accusing the authorities of inaction. The demonstration soon turned into a road blockade demanding immediate arrests. Police deployed the Quick Response Team to control the situation, and Superintendent of Police Vijay Kumar Saklani personally reached the spot, assuring action and peace.
3. Christian missionaries caught luring Hindu families in Bilaspur
A covert conversion drive was busted in Bilaspur district, Chhattisgarh, where Hindu villagers, including women and minors, were manipulated to embrace Christianity under the guise of a “prayer meeting.” The incident took place in Kukurdikhurd village under Pachpedi police station limits on November 12, 2025.
According to reports, two Christian preachers, Sanjay Dandekar and Ririk Lahaskar, organised a gathering at Dandekar’s residence, where dozens of Hindu families were present. They offered material inducements and emotional promises to persuade attendees to abandon their ancestral faith. Religious texts, including Bibles and Christian literature, were being used to influence villagers and their children.
As word spread, local Hindu organisation members informed the police, who arrived to halt the meeting before tensions escalated. A written complaint was filed by Narayan Patel, accusing the organisers of exploiting vulnerable Hindus through inducements and psychological manipulation. Police registered a case under Section 299 and Section 3(5) of the Chhattisgarh Freedom of Religion Act and began recording witness statements.
4. Love Jihad allegations intensify after Jyoti Kumari’s disappearance
Jyoti Kumari, a 25-year-old woman from Dhansari village, has been missing since November 11, and her case has now become a troubling example of how a simple investigation can spiral into confusion, delays, and deep mistrust. Her family first sensed something was wrong on 9 November and approached the police immediately, but even after Jyoti disappeared on November 11 and an FIR was filed the next day, the investigation barely moved.
Vijendra Singh, Jyoti’s brother says the officers not only stalled the case but even allowed people linked to the accused, Aamir Khan Qureshi, to roam freely inside the station, raising questions about possible collusion. Jyoti has since been found but remains silent, with no clear statement about whether she left voluntarily or under pressure. Reports says that she carried 4 tolas of gold and Rs 1.5 lakh.
Vijendra continues to allege that police suppressed statements, shielded the accused, and weakened the investigation from the start.
5. Love Jihad allegation adds new twist to murder FIR against former Punjab DGP
A fresh controversy has erupted around the murder FIR filed against former Punjab DGP Mohammed Mustafa and his family, as the complainant, Shamsuddin Chaudhary, now faces a Love Jihad allegation in Panchkula. The charge surfaced through a post by the Facebook page Malerkotla House, which frequently promotes content linked to Mustafa’s family.
According to the post, Chaudhary allegedly manipulated a wealthy Hindu couple during a minor dispute, pushed them toward divorce, and later drew the Hindu woman into a relationship under the guise of “Love Jihad.” The page claims he began living with her thereafter.
Malerkotla House is widely believed to be linked to the Mustafa family’s PR circle. After the death of Mustafa’s son, Akeel Akhtar, on 16 October, the page had been posting images, videos, and statements in support of the family.
Mustafa, a 1985-batch IPS officer, was once considered close to former CM Captain Amarinder Singh. His equations soured after he was not appointed DGP. He later aligned with Navjot Singh Sidhu and remained active in Congress until retirement.
His wife, Razia Sultana, a two-time MLA from Malerkotla, served as cabinet minister in 2017 and again in 2021, though she eventually lost the 2022 election.

According to the FIR, Shahrukh first introduced himself as a Hindu and gradually built trust with the woman. He then proposed marriage, took her to Kishangarh on the pretext of work, and sexually assaulted her. The woman further stated that he fled with her gold earrings, mobile phone, fifteen thousand rupees in wages, and essential household items. His phone has remained switched off since.

November 15, 2025
1. Conversion bid exposed in Kushinagar
A quiet village in Kushinagar turned tense on the night of 15 November when residents discovered a Christian prayer gathering that, according to locals, was being used as a cover for converting Hindu families. The meeting took place inside a house in Kokilpatti around 8.15 pm. Villagers noticed outsiders arriving in the dark and suspected a targeted attempt to influence Hindu women and children.
They alerted members of VHP and Bajrang Dal, who reached the spot and called the police. Officers from Vishunpura station detained a few individuals, including Suresh of Kokilpatti and Omprakash of Ahirauli, and recovered Bibles during the intervention. The group denied any conversion attempt, claiming they had only come for healing prayers. Villagers disagreed, saying similar covert meetings had been happening for months and that videos from this particular gathering clearly hinted at conversion-linked activities.
The pattern looked familiar: late-night prayer sessions, outsiders entering the village, emotional persuasion framed as “healing,” and subtle pressure on vulnerable Hindu families. Minors were also present, raising further concern. Residents alleged that Hindu beliefs were demeaned during the session, a tactic often used in predatory proselytisation to weaken religious confidence and draw individuals toward another faith.
2. Maulvi arrested in Ankleshwar for rape and conversion pressure

She went straight to the Panoli police station and filed a complaint. Officers arrested the maulvi and began investigation. During questioning, police discovered he holds Canadian citizenship. He has been placed on a 10-day remand to probe whether more women were targeted, and to map his travel across India, Canada and other countries.
3. Love Jihad Case in Khandwa
At Khandwa district hospital, a security guard’s suspicion late Thursday evening led to the exposure of what police say was a coercive attempt to take a 20-year-old Hindu woman away for marriage and religious conversion. Two Muslim youths, Sahil and Faizan, were seen with her inside the hospital. When the guard questioned the situation, both men fled, leaving the woman distressed. Residents helped detain the duo until police arrived.
In her statement, the woman said she met Sahil around a week earlier when he accompanied a friend of hers at the hospital. He took her number and began calling repeatedly, expressing interest in marriage and insisting she convert to Islam. She refused. On the day of the incident, she had come to the hospital for a colleague’s work when the two men confronted her again. According to her complaint, they grabbed her hand, pressured her to come with them, and repeated the demand for conversion.
Sahil, during interrogation, claimed she was a “sister-like friend” of his fiancée and denied coercion. Police have dismissed this version for now and registered a case under the Religious Freedom Act along with sections of the Atrocities Act. Both accused are in custody, and investigators say they will present them before the court after completing the initial inquiry.
The quick action of the security guard and locals prevented the situation from escalating, and the case has now entered a formal probe into coercive religious targeting.
4. UP Shocker: Mau youth forced into Circumcision, Conversion and Nikah
A love affair that began in 2022 at a dental clinic in Mau turned into a disturbing saga of coercion and religious force.

They then conducted a nikah and compelled him to pray at the mosque daily. A video of the ordeal was also recorded.
Unable to bear the constant harassment, Vishal escaped from Assam and reached Mau, where he informed his family and showed them the video. Soon after, Sunaina’s relatives arrived at his house along with local police, adding to the pressure. Vishal’s mother approached the court, which directed police to register a case against seven accused.
