Mangalore, August 27: Activists of Vishwa Hindu Parishad and Bajarangdal on Monday staged a demonstration in the city protesting against violence in Assam and Northeastern States.

The protesters, who gathered in front of the office of Deputy Commissioner, here, were holding saffron flags and shouting slogans against “illegal Bangladeshi immigrants”.

They expressed concern over exodus of a large number of students and young employees of NE states from different parts of the State. They also condemned the violent incidents in Mumbai and attack on students at Pune.

“The current problem is the result of the tension between the local communities who are genuine citizens of the nation and the Bangladeshi Muslims who are illegal migrants,” said Bajrang Dal division convener Sharan Pumpwell said.

“The government should implement all effective steps immediately to curb the infiltration from Bangladesh and to detect them here, delete their names (from electoral lists), and to deport back in order to put a permanent halt to this problem,” said VHP district Manojaram Tulajaram. He demanded that the National Register of Citizens should be prepared without further delay.

“We also assure all help, safety and security to our brethren of Assam and other NE States living or studying in the State and other parts of the country,” he said.

The protest was organized in response to12-hour Assam bundh call given by VHP and Bajrang Dal.

Remember social media memes of Chinese companies exporting #BoycottChina hats and t-shirts to India? This time India’s sensational and saffronite TV anchor Arnab Goswami vindicated those memes by hosting an anti-China debate show which was sponsored by Chinese companies!

While the last night's debate was all about boycotting Chinese products in the wake of massacre of over 20 Indian soldiers by their Chinese counterparts in eastern Ladakh, the show was brazenly promoting Chinese products through advertisement placements. 

During the debate, amongst the flashy headlines, there were two brand sponsorships that appeared: VIVO and Xiaomi. Both companies are giant Chinese multinational corporations. 

Twitter user Nirmala Tai, who was among those who spotted this irony, highlighted two instances during the debate where the logo of one of the brands popped up, and one where Xiaomi was found promoting the Mi 10. 

Many Twitterati used Goswami’s some of the favourite words such as ‘hypocrite’ and ‘anti-national’ to target him. They hit out at his channel for accepting sponsorship deals from Chinese brands at a time when anti-China sentiment is strong in the country.
