Surge in Cow Vigilantism: Hindutva Gangs Attack Muslim Driver in Bihar

Hindutva extremists in Bihar's Samastipur district assaulted a Muslim transporter under the pretext of cow vigilantism, even in the presence of police. Since Narendra Modi's 2014 rise to power, such incidents have surged, with vigilante groups claiming empowerment from the BJP's victory. These unorganized, often armed gangs inspire others by sharing videos of their violent acts on social media.
