Land Jihad case in MH's Latur? Neitizens demand state cognizance in case of Vitthal Rukmini temple land snatched by Muslims

Latur, June 02: In a horrifying incident in the state of Maharashtra, a land belonging to a temple already has been grabbed forcefully by a group of Muslim people. In a video that went viral yesterday, a group of Muslim people are seen forcefully laying hold of the land that at first belonged to the Vitthal Rukmini temple authorities in a village in Latur, Maharashtra.

 

 

Beating and thrashing the Hindu people who tried getting back the place, the group of Muslim men were heard saying that the village has more of muslim community and so they were opposing the construction of temple. The land in controversy actually has been donated by a Hindu for Vitthal Rukmini temple construction.

 

 

 

 

While more details on the matter are awaited, the video has already become a viral material for the social media seeking cognizance of state authorities in the matter. This seems to be anything but yet another case of Land Jihad where a piece of land belonging to Hindu community is snatched by Muslims to show power.

 

 

Land Jihad is commonly seen in the state of West Bengal, Assam, Mizoram. Further this case from a Latur's village in Maharashtra is grabbing neitizen;s attention. Earlier, in one of the Assam election rally, HMO Amit Shah had said that he would make stricter laws against Land Jihad. Is Maharashtra too in need of some such law?
