From Himachal to Madhya Pradesh, protests over the Pahalgam terror attack are rapidly turning into flashpoints of hate. Across northern India, anti-Muslim sentiment is surging, with calls for boycotts and evictions echoing through the streets. In the two weeks following the Pahalgam attack, India Hate Lab recorded 64 in-person hate speech incidents across 16 states, with Maharashtra reporting the highest number. These events included public calls for economic boycotts, inflammatory speeches, and threats against Muslims. This wave of hate speech has been accompanied by a troubling rise in hate crimes and acts of violence, targeting Kashmiris in particular and Muslims more broadly. Learn more about your ad choices.
