In the discussion jostled by @rahulkanwal on @IndiaToday
I wasn't allowed to comment on the discussion re PFI. I wanted to say: there are at least two caste & Hindu supremacist radical outfits based in Western UP and Hathras itself: Savarna Parishad & the Hindu Yuva Vahini.

The anchor should have questioned the fact that "literature" cannot be "suspicious", cannot be grounds for arrest, least of all of a journalist. If Savarna Parishad or HYV or Hindu Janjagran Samiti (accused in blasts) can move freely to any village in India why not PFI?
All the violence seen in Hathras has been on part of caste supremacists: who raped, fatally injured the victim, their men in uniform burned her body to destroy evidence, besieged her family, HYV chief the UP CM paid @ConceptPR_India to spin narrative to paint the victim as liar.
*hosted not jostled. Sorry!
If one wants to speak at all of radicalised literature, the top example of it is the Manusmriti that mandates violence against women and Dalits - the UP CM is on record citing this text to support his arguments against Constitutional reservations & women's autonomy.
Yogi hagiographer Shantanu Gupta implied that the victim's family has no right to host Dalit friends from neighbouring villages in their home, to offer support in a situation where they are isolated & surrounded by hostile Thakur households & intimidation by @Uppolice & admin
Even with her badly injured tongue, the victim bravely recorded repeated statements on video to police, including her dying declaration. It is absolutely shameful that a Yogi hagiographer implies she's lying about being raped, throwing around the word "affair".
Know what? In rural UP & Bihar, sexual exploitation of Dalit girls & women by oppressor caste men in the name of "affairs" is an old, old phenomenon. Also, see the next tweet
Caste apart also, there have been many many cases in India and other countries too, which a boyfriend or ex have tricked a woman, only to drug and gang rape her firstpost.com/india/uzbek-wo…
