Cow Worn with Islamic Cap, Video Made with Caption - Fun After Sehari

A viral video showing Muslim boys placing an Islamic cap on a cow led to significant controversy and an FIR against the boys in India.

In Guna, Madhya Pradesh, a video depicting two minor Muslim boys placing an Islamic cap on a cow has sparked outrage, particularly among cow protection activists. The video, which included the caption 'Fun After Sehari', was shared online and quickly attracted the attention of local cow advocates, who deemed the act disrespectful to their religious beliefs. As a result, they filed a complaint leading to a police FIR against the boys for allegedly hurting religious sentiments.

The incident escalated when the mother of one of the boys arrived at the police station, expressing her willingness to apologize and emphasizing the potential adverse effects of a police record on her child's education and future career. However, the cow protection activists were adamant about pursuing the legal action, arguing that the cow is sacred and that mocking it in such a manner is a despicable act that warrants accountability.

Police Superintendent Ankit Soni has been involved in managing the situation, and local sentiment remains divided. While some advocate for leniency given the boys' ages, others maintain that such acts should not be tolerated as they undermine communal harmony and respect for cultural symbols.
