Now every Peace loving Hindu should stand united against her and denounce her terrorizing speech. Say boldly she does not represent any peace loving Hindus.
Hinduism does not reflect in her. If people like her continues to live, they then spoil the Hinduism or the religion what they represent.
If the government is fair, they should take immediate action by arresting her and prosecuting under law of the land.
Now there is no any surprise for any peace loving person declares a bounty of 1crore for head brainless head, if the government does not take any action against her.
Oh peace loving Hindus and Muslims be united, live together follow whatever your religion says, but please use your valued brain for understanding the true teaching of God.
Look at her .........like shit....she represents. A religion...?
Again the drain is open.......may be because of rain...
Need some good man to please her....so she is satisfied with something.....
Dear Majoosi sect please identity yourself & Hussaini Tiger organization address before placing 15 lakh on Dr Naik. secondly implement your Ayatullah fatwa & award on Rushdi.
Sadhvi is on drug. She has no capacity to give birth to baby how can she behead someone like Dr. Naik. Too funny.
We need organization to file criminal case against these organizations & individuals scums in the court.
A Killer / Murderer in Sadhvi's clothing?
What are the criminal charges for supari killing?
Can police arrest her and put behind the bars.
VHP and its allies are feeding and nurturing few lunatic creatures in its terror camps and utilize them in such cirumstances which becomes mockery every time they tries. Arnav Goswami must be a frustrated joker at this moment.

See her ugly face ..did she ever seen 10k rupee in her life ..first spend some amount in beauty parlour.
Zakir Naik s head is more costlier than kohinoor diamond. just by wearing orange dress an uncultured woman will not become sadhvi.
There are many scholars got defeated by zakir bhai in debate. They have tried all their scholars after getting defeat they are using terrorism weopons against him.
It shows their impotency .
