Hate speeches case pending.
There is already a case of hate speeches pending in the Supreme Court.
The court had on January 12 issued notices to the Central Government, Delhi Police, and Uttarakhand Police on a petition filed by journalist Kurban Ali and retired Patna High Court judge and senior advocate Anjana Prakash.
In that petition, citing hate speeches in Haridwar and Delhi’s Dharma Sansad, an SIT has been demanded. Hindu organizations have filed intervention applications in this pending matter.
Incidents should be investigated.
Hindu Front for Justice through advocate Vishnu Shankar Jain has filed an application on behalf of President Ranjana Agnihotri. Two other people are also petitioners in this.
The organization has also demanded in the application that the incidents of making hate speech against the spirit of the Constitution and the integrity of the country should be investigated.
The investigation should be done by SIT.
It has been said in the petition that the hate speeches given against Hindus and Hindu gods and goddesses should be investigated by the SIT.
The court should issue appropriate orders to stop the leaders of the Muslim community from spreading hatred and violence against Hindus.
The application refers to the hate speeches made against Hindus by several Muslim leaders.
Video links of speeches were also given.
In this video, links have been given to speeches of many people like Muslim missionary Zakir Naik, AIMIM leader Asaduddin Owaisi, Akbaruddin Owaisi, Waris Pathan, Aam Aadmi Party leader Amanatullah Khan, Tauqir Raza, Sajid Rashidi, etc.
It has been said in the application that every citizen of India is entitled to equal protection before the law.
Therefore, the Court should not look at the concept of majority and minority while analyzing hate speeches.

This matter is related to the general public and considering the scope of judicial review of the matter, the court should allow the petitioner to intervene in this matter.
The Hindu Sena, in an application filed through advocate Barun Kumar Sinha, has demanded action against Muslim leaders who made hate speeches by registering a case.
The issue of religious freedom guaranteed under Article 25 of the Constitution has also been raised in the petition.
