Horse Operators attacked Hindu Couple In Kedarnath for refusing Service.

Horse and Mule operators in Gang were found attacking a Hindu devotee couple who were climbing the hill and refused the service of horse operators who were charging high amount. The Insane and Demonic act was so scary that the woman was seen crying and begging not to attack her man but the men gathered in numbers attack the Hindu devotee mercilessly. The attack on the Kedarnath devotee had deeply hurt the Hindu sentiments and most of the Indians expected the fear of travelling to Kedarnath out of fear as the entire Horse operating syndicate is filled with non Hindus who collect hefty amount and show rude behaviour.

ANI reported that :

The most disguting part was that the Devotees who were passing by became mute spectators for long time and didnt interefer in stopping the fellow devotee from being hit.

Kedarnath and Badrinath devotees were attacked many times by communal forces in the last few decades. The job of horse/mule operating – carrying devotees on animal and helping them climb up the hill is mostly done by the local muslims. They dominate this work and charge hefty amount from the old and physically weak piligrims who cant walk and climb up the massive hill. However the names of the attackers is not shared by the state police so their identity is unknown.
