In a shocking incident that has shaken Dehradun’s Vasant Vihar neighborhood, a Hindu family was allegedly targeted by a violent mob of around 150 Islamists, resulting in severe injuries to family members and an attempted abduction of their daughter. This brazen assault, which unfolded in “Devbhoomi” Uttarakhand — revered as the Land of the Gods — has sparked deep concerns about the safety of Hindu families and the alarming rise in communal tensions. The incident has ignited frustration within the local Hindu community, raising serious questions about the apparent lack of response from authorities to such aggression.

The family recounts a harrowing ordeal, describing how their son was beaten ruthlessly while attackers tried to abduct their daughter, escalating fears among Hindu residents who once viewed the region as a bastion of peace and spirituality. Fortunately, the intervention of Bajrang Dal members and local residents prevented what could have been an even graver tragedy. This show of solidarity has since mobilized the local Hindu community, with many rallying at the police station, demanding accountability and immediate measures for protection.

Despite the brutal nature of the attack, the response from authorities has been criticized as inadequate, leaving many to question why such a large, organized group could act with such audacity and impunity. Residents are particularly dismayed that an incident of this scale was able to unfold without preventive action, casting doubt on the commitment of law enforcement to safeguard citizens, especially in areas of deep religious and cultural significance like Uttarakhand.
