On 25th January 2022, a young man named Kishan Bharwad was killed allegedly over communal tensions. Kishan was on target for a long time before he was finally killed as he had shared a post on social media that was considered offensive by Islamists. However, the three culprits in the case have been arrested including a Maulana.
Maulana along with two others arrested for the murder of Kishan
The Police have arrested three accused who have been identified as Dhandhuka residents Sabbir Chopda (24) and Imtiyaz Pathan (27), and Maulana Mohammad Ayub Javarawala, a resident of Jamalpur in Ahmedabad. Reportedly, Chopda and Pathan shot Kishan, and Maulana had allegedly provided the pistol and cartridges to them for killing Kishan.
A senior police official at Ahmedabad Rural reported, “The deceased had posted a Facebook update on January 6, 2022, in which he had written objectionable comments against a religion. An FIR was lodged against Kishan then at the Dhandhuka police station after a complaint. After Kishan received bail, the duo (Chopda and Pathan) made up their mind to kill him and were provided with the gun and ammunition by the Maulana.”

Sanghavi, the Minister of State for Home was quoted as saying “After Kishan was murdered, the Ahmedabad police formed separate teams and nabbed the accused within 24 hours. The state government is monitoring the case and is actively working to ensure justice to Kishan.”
Kishan was killed for expressing his thoughts
According to the police, Kishan was shot dead when he and his cousin Bhaumik Boliya were passing by the Modhwada locality of Dhandhuka town. At around 5:30 PM, two killers approached them on the bike and fired shots. Bhaumik survived while Kishan, the main target died on the spot.
People aware of the incident have asserted that he was killed because of his social media post. It is being said that Kishan had shared a post on social media that was considered offensive by Islamists.
The murder has led to the rise of communal tension in the state. To protest against Kishan’s murder, Vishwa Hindu Parishad (VHP) organised a bandh in Dhandhuka. Talking about the bandh, Hitendrasinh Rajput, VHP spokesperson said, “The call of bandh in Dhandhuka was totally successful. Our senior Gujarat leaders Ashok Raval, Rajesh Patel, Jwalit Mehta and Nalin Patel visited Dhandhuka today and also met the family of deceased Bharwad,”

Earlier as reported by TFI, according to the 2011 Census, Hindus consist of 88.57 percent of the total population of Gujarat, while Muslims share only 9.6 percent of the population pie chart. The problem of uneven population distribution has been exacerbated by Pakistan supportive religious fanatics in the state.
However, Gujarat Government needs to take some precautionary measures to prevent communal tensions. If such attacks and crimes would continue to occur, it will lead the state to witness a threat of disrupted communal harmony and no one deserves to die because of communal riots.
As per The Hindu newspaper, Gujarati Hindus have converted this incident to a communal level!! Damn Gujarati Hindus, first they converted 59 Kar Sevaks murders to communal level for no good reason, and now this!!
Kishan Bharwads death will not go in vain. Muslim maulanas and Jihadi muslim will pay for this. The very azan that says there is no god but Allah and we dont bow to anyone else but him is a forgery. There is no proof in this. This was a mad mans hallucination and tactic to control his small tribe and region in Arabia. What does is have to do with former Hindus who were converted to Islam by rapes and force? Muslims use brain rather than blatantly believing lies from a book written from imaginary hallucinations, stories and incidents gathered from all kind of people from an impoverished, backward, uneducated region. You certainly deserve much more better than what you have got yourselves into by blindly following and continuing with forced, brainwashed religion from foreign shores.
