Ajeet Bharti

Islamophobic Remarks :

Ajeet Bharti is a right-leaning Hindu journalist who lives in Delhi. He previously worked as a Hindi editor for the OpIndia propaganda website run by the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS). He owns and operates DO Politics, a digital newsroom and YouTube channel. His channel actively spreads anti-Muslim propaganda and serves as a megaphone for Hindu extremists.

He frequently posts films in which he defends every anti-Muslim measure taken by the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP)-led administration. He quickly develops counterarguments and violent polemics that ultimately blame Muslims for anti-Muslim hate crimes.

Twitter terminated his account in 2020 for violating the terms governing “hateful conduct.” The answer to Bharti’s tweet, “Good to see more leaders removing radical from their statements on Islamic terror,” was the action. Never was it ‘radical Islam.’ Islam was always the word. As France did, other countries ought to do the same. term it radical by default and term it ‘Islamic terror’.

Here are a few examples of his anti-Muslim YouTube videos:

The phrase “Patrakarita ke naam par jo chal raha hai wo vaishya vriti sadrishya hai, rashtra ghrina aur hindu grina ko hi patrakarita bana rakha hai” means “patrakarita” in Hindi. (What is happening in the guise of journalism is comparable to prostitution; Hindu and national hatred has been elevated to the status of journalism.)

“Avaidh mazaron ka Agra ke park par qabza, hinduon ke sanrakshan me phal phool rahe mazar” (Illegal Muslim shrines invade Agra’s park, Muslim Shrines thriving with Hindu support!)


“Gajar ghas ki tarah ugti mazaron ki janch kyun nahi hoti, mazar ki aar me ‘land jihad’ ka bhayawah roop har oor” (Why aren’t the Muslim tombs that keep popping up investigated? Terrible “Land Jihad” in the pretext of Mazar everywhere.)


“Jo hai hamari raah rora, Kya hai waqf qanoon, puja asthal qanoon, Gyanvapi ki raah atiyant kathin Hinduon ko jagna hi hoga” The Waqf law and the Place of Worship Act are obstacles in the way of the Hindu nation; to reach Gyanvapi, Hindus must awaken.

The phrase “Hyderabad ke kattarpanthi Hinduon ke sabr ki pariksha na len, Owaisi ke tattuon ko 2002, 2022 wapis asmaran kara denge” means “2022 will be the year of asmaran in Hyderabad.” (Don’t put the Hyderabadi Hindu fundamentalists to the test; you’ll make Owaisi’s horses remember 2002 and 2022 again.)

He uses the standard argument that Hindus are being victimized and blames Muslims for all the hardships and wrongs that Hindus in India must endure. He frequently invites infamous Islamophobes and hate-mongers to appear on his programmes and accepts their xenophobic viewpoints as respectable alternatives. His guests include scandalous bigots like Yati Narasimhananda, Bageshwar Baba, Giriraj Singh, Kapil Mishra, etc.

When Supreme Court judges appear to be acting justly in cases involving some Hindu hardline interests, he has no qualms about criticizing them.

“I decline to take part in the contempt case because a court cannot be the accuser, acquitter, and judge in its own case. Regarding the Supreme Court’s power to take action against him in cases of gross contempt, he jeers, “If my language sounds filthy to you, I also have the right to unravel your (Judiciary’s) filth.”

Then-Indian Attorney General KK Venugopal was advised by him to retire, spend time with his grandkids, and hand over the position to a young lawyer who is cognizant of how times have changed. Notably, the Attorney General had approved legal action for contempt against Bharti for making “gross” comments about the Indian Supreme Court.

His poisonous digital output primarily consists of coarse language and cheap theatrics mixed with conspiracies and propaganda. He cruelly posts “roast” movies to his channel where he mocks the plight of Muslims in the nation.

He has written numerous novels that denigrate minorities. One of his books is titled “Ghar Wapsi.”

The campaign of forcible conversion of religious minorities to Hinduism is known as Ghar Wapsi (“Returning Home”). It is mostly carried out by militant Hindu groups like the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) and Vishva Hindu Parishad (VHP), as well as its allies. The word derives from the Hindu nationalist theory that all Indians are by nature Hindus, and that adopting a Hindu lifestyle is akin to “returning home” to one’s ancestors.)
