Meerut Police said that a man came to the college to deposit the fees of his sister. He was caught by other students filming videos. When students objected to it, he tried to assault them.

On 27th September, Meerut Police debunked media reports and social media posts where it was claimed that a Muslim man was assaulted at NSA Degree College for wearing a skull cap. In a post on X (formerly Twitter), Meerut Police said that a man came to the college to deposit the fees of his sister. He was caught by other students filming videos. When students objected to it, he tried to assault them. An FIR has been registered in the matter. The Police categorically said that it was not a communal matter but a scuffle between two groups over recording videos.

Islamists, political parties and media houses claimed a Muslim man was beaten for wearing a cap

Several politicians, Islamists and media houses shared fake news about the incident.

UP Congress, from its official handle, shared the fake news and wrote that some miscreants assaulted a man who came to deposit fees of his sister just because he was wearing a cap. Congress accused the BJP of spreading communal tension in the state.

A media house, Anytime News Meerut, also shared a similar post claiming the man was beaten up for wearing a cap. Meerut police replied and debunked the claims.

‘Journalist’ Nitin Singh also shared similar claims on X. He claimed that the miscreants assaulted the Muslim man and asked him to remove the cap.
