The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) is accused of using selective outrage over the killing of women by their partners to spread anti-Muslim hatred. Rathee’s commentary comes amidst ongoing tensions in India regarding communal relationships and political manipulation. According to Kashmir Media Service, Rathee’s videos, which have garnered millions of views, analyze how incidents of violence are differently portrayed depending on the religious identity of the perpetrator and the victim. The YouTuber claims that when a Muslim man is accused of violence, it is broadly used to generalize negative stereotypes about Muslims, whereas similar actions by Hindu men do not receive equivalent attention if the perpetrator is connected to BJP leaders. Rathee’s analysis extends to the broader media landscape and social media, where he suggests that there is a concerted effort by the BJP to manipulate public perception and stoke communal fears for electoral gains. He also criticizes the lack of communal justice and the selec
tive dissemination of information by BJP supporters.
