#Thread: Anti-Brahmin Riots of 1948 - A Congress Conspiracy?
Following the death of MK Gandhi, Maharashtrian Brahmins experienced horrors, that despite being recorded, are unknown to the masses.
Brahmins were manhunted only because the assassin belonged to that community.

Within a few hours of Gandhi’s assasination, the details of the assassin and his caste miraculuosly trickled down to different parts of the country.
How did this happen? There was no social media back in 1948 to help this spread of information.
Who planned this pogrom?

Senior Congress leader and the Home Minister of the Central Provinces then, who later went on to become the Chief Minister of Madhya Pradesh wrote some very intriguing things in his memoirs.

On Page 73 of ‘Living an Era’, DP Mishra clearly mentions the involvement of Congressmen in the violence against the Maharashtrian Brahmin community.
He also adds that he was ‘pressurised’ to release more than a 100 Congressmen who were arrested by the Police.

Who would have pressurised the Home Minister of the Central Provinces to release a handful of Congressmen involved in the heinous crimes against the Maharashtrian Brahmins?
Definitely someone at Delhi. The question is whether Nehru was aware of this?

Hardly half a dozen Maharashtrian Brahmins were involved in Godse’s crime.
But thanks to the INC, thousands of Mahrashtrian Brahmins were forced to desert their lands, homes and property to safer hideouts.

Brahmins were brutally massacred, their houses were burnt and they were forced to flee.
This was literally an attempt of ethnical cleansing.
And yes, the Indian National Congress was responsible for this. Congress can never wash this blood (of Brahmins) off its hands.

I would like to thank @vikramsampath for highlighting the horrors faced by Maharashtrian Brahmins in his #Savarkar - A Contested Legacy and later on national television.
Also, salute to those, who narrated the dark experiences faced by their ancestors back in 1948.

Next time when @RahulGandhi tries to woo the voters using his “Janeudhari Dattatreya Gotra Brahmin’ identity, do ask him about this pogrom against the Maharashtrian Brahmins.
Be it 1948 or 1984, Maharahtrian Brahmins and Sikhs have experienced this sick metality of the INC.
