Manish Kashyap controversy: Journalism, as we all know, is the fraternity that is trusted to disseminate information. The basic definition of journalism states that it is the process of gathering and disseminating important facts and information to the general public.
Yes. I know; all of you know this. But what you don’t know is that in journalism school, certain theories are taught that elaborate on how communication takes place. And here I want to focus on agenda-setting theory. The theory states that the audience is passive, and the media tells the audience ‘What to think about’ rather than ‘what to think’.
Listen to these two phrases carefully: What to think about rather than what to think. Which means what you perceive and think, or simply your thought process, is pre-determined by the media. The explanation of the theory sets well not only in the field of journalism but in the entire world of communication, courtesy the expansion of social media.
Social media has enhanced the power of communication and its reach. In today’s world, a social media post or a simple WhatsApp message has the potential to incite violence. The audience only thinks what it is made to think. Else, what explanation can one have for the ‘SAN TAN SE JUDA’ gang that went behind Nupur Sharma?
The fate of Nupur Sharma was decided by social media posts
Nupur Sharma, the former BJP spokesperson, had made controversial but fact-based remarks. She had raised a question to those constantly demeaning Hindus: “What if Hindus mock anyone else’s belief like this”. She had reiterated facts that were available in the public domain. For stating a fact that has already been told by Islamic clerics and Maulanas themselves, Nupur was not only attacked on social media, but an entire movement was built around it that claimed the lives of many Hindus.
Remember the cold-blooded murder of Kanhaiya Lal? Who had started the conversation with a specific angle that acted as a precursor for the movement? None other than deemed fact-checker Mohammad Zubair. Zubair had shared an incomplete video of Nupur Sharma, alleging that she had blasphemed against Prophet Mohammad. Who is Mohammad Zubair? But the more important thing to know is: what are the sins of Mohammad Zubair?
Zubair does Nupur Sharma 2.0 with Kajal Hindustani
On March 30, the entire country of India celebrated the birth anniversary of Bhagwan Shri Ram. In Una, district Gir Somnath, an event, a dharma sabha, was organised after the Ram Navami Procession, in which Kajal Hindustani was one of the speakers. She raised several issues, from love jihad to illegal land occupation to religious conversion. She highlighted how the Left-Liberal cabal is always hand-in-glove with the Islamists and propagates their nefarious agenda.
The controversy brewed up on this speech, and the highlight of the controversy became a phrase used by Kajal in which she says, “Huye Sanati Punyo se isko mat abhishap karo, utho Hinduon shastra uthao apni raksha aap karo.” What does it mean? It means that taking birth as a Hindu comes after so many good deeds, and the Hindus must protect themselves on their own. And the fact-checker Zubair grabbed it up; he asked the Delhi Police that the slogan wasn’t a provocation to pick up arms in his tweet.
Kajal Singla (Kajal Hindustani) says, “Utho Hinduon shastra apne aap uthao, apni raksha apne aap karo”.
Isn’t this provocation to pick up arms? @DelhiPolice 👋 https://t.co/EETZzknITe— Mohammed Zubair (@zoo_bear) April 3, 2023
Zubair, who has a habit of dog-whistling, did the same with Nupur Sharma. What happened after this tweet? The Sar Tan Se Juda gang was active and behind Kajal Hindustani, thus triggering violence and riots in several parts of the country. Once again, a bloodthirsty mob is behind Kajal for asking Hindus to act in self-defence. Not only this, but multiple FIRs have been registered against Kajal under different sections of the IPC, which include 295A, 153A, and 505, among others.
Again, Sar tan se juda slogan raised by jihadi radicals in Una, Gujarat
Muslim goons raised slogans in front of the police post, @sanghaviharsh now in what language will you answer them? You used to say that you will forget to look at the stone !#HindusUnderAttack pic.twitter.com/uPwCHJ5era— Krishna Rathod (@KrishnrathodGuj) April 1, 2023
The Gir Somnath SP did try to mediate; however, he was rewarded with stone-pelting by the Islamists. They had gathered in front of the police station, and slogans like ‘Gustakh-e-Nabi ki ek hi saza, sar tan se juda’ were raised.

Manish Kashyap is booked under the NSA
Youtuber Manish Kashyap has been booked under the NSA, which means the National Security Act. But why? Well, for running a story on his YouTube channel that claimed that Bihari migrant labourers were targeted and abused in the southern state of Tamil Nadu, which was later denied by both the state administrations.
Manish Kashyap, who was arrested by the Bihar Police’s economic offences unit (EOU) after he surrendered at Jagdishpur police station on March 18 in relation to the case, was brought from Bihar to Tamil Nadu on transit remand by a special team of the Tamil Nadu police. He is in judicial custody in Tamil Nadu and has now been booked under the National Security Act by the Madurai Police.

How is Manish Kashyap known in Bihar? As the son of Bihar. Manish Kashyap’s real name is Tripurari Kumar Tiwari. He comes from an engineering background, is known for his loud questions from the ground—be it school, police station, or crime scenes—and has 6 million followers on his YouTube channel.
Many opine on Manish Kashyap arrest: this is the price you pay for being a Hindu with a voice. With serial misinformation spreader Mohammad Zubair, Kashyap is deemed to be a threat to the nation. I mean, how? I can’t understand. If you can, please let us know in the comment section.
