kanwariyas

As the administration of Muzaffarnagar district in Uttar Pradesh has issued an order asking hotels, dhabas, and carts selling food items to write the name of their proprietors and operators running the shop or cart during Kanwar Yatra, several Islamists are suffering a tremendous meltdown.

On July 23, Islamists had pelted stones at a group of Kanwariyas near Shahnoori mosque in the Bareilly city of Uttar Pradesh. Alt News co-founder Mohammad Zubair had tried to shield the Islamists by sharing a crop video

Mohammad Bhura, Mohammad Ali, Irshad, Shahzad, and Abid dressed like Kanwariyas and entered Kanwar camps to steal 100 mobile phones.

Six kanwariya pilgrims, including an eight-year-old boy, were electrocuted to death when their DJ vehicle came in contact with a high-tension overhead wire

Muslims residing in the Dunka village in Uttar Pradesh's Bareilly have stopped Kanwariyas from entering the village.

Villagers of Paragwa village harassed Kanwariyas, attacking them with stones, throwing contaminated water on them.

Qazi Farhan recently visited the temple of Goddess Shakambhari and had Darshan. He has stated that he started receiving threats on social media after the temple visit and his help to Kanwariyas.

Sight of the Uttar Pradesh government facilitating the Kanwar Yatra smoothly has drawn the ire of the cabal of left liberals.

The Kanwariyas said that as they were crossing the Kankarkheda bypass post on the Delhi-Dehradun highway, the two youths came after jumping the divider and spat at three places on their Kanwar.

Kanwar yatra is an annual pilgrimage of devotees of Lord Shiva. The devotees are known as Kawariyas and carry a Kanwar, a bamboo pole.
