India: BJP's Hindutva leadership erasing Muslim history, identity
June 21, 2026

In India, the BJP's Hindutva leadership is erasing Muslim history and identity.

According to the Indian media outlet Muslim Mirror, the one-thousand-year-old historic Ganj-e-Shahidan Mosque in Varanasi, Uttar Pradesh, has become the latest target of the anti-Muslim Modi government, with a demolition notice already issued for the structure.

The BJP government has demolished more than twenty-three mosques, religious seminaries, Eidgahs, and shrines within a span of forty-five days.

The report highlights that the Hindutva regime is systematically targeting Muslim religious sites, ranging from the one-thousand-year-old mosque to a two-hundred-year-old shrine.

It further points out that since May, at least twenty religious sites, including mosques, shrines, and madrasas, have been razed.
