Ishkaran Singh Bhandari

Islamophobic Remarks :

Ishkaran Singh Bhandari works as a lawyer. He frequently publishes editorials, makes television appearances, and produces YouTube videos that advance the divisive goal of the Hindu far-right.

Similar efforts to establish the Hindu nationalist narrative inside the nation’s current legal doctrine have distinguished his professional tenure as a lawyer. He has testified in court on behalf of rape defendants like Asaram Babu.

Bhandari was in the heart of the online movement that allegedly sought justice for Sushant Singh Rajput, a Bollywood star.

He manipulated and made the actor’s suicide a target for the film industry. He organized attacks on Bollywood for refusing to submit to the propaganda apparatus of the Hindu nationalists and the BJP while disguising his demands for justice for the deceased actor.

Bhandari referred to the arrest of prominent hate speaker Kalicharan Maharaj as “an attack on free speech” because of his vicious hate speech. He does this by helping to normalize hate, prejudice, and disinformation.

He is affiliated legally with the infamously anti-Muslim and Islamophobic BJP leader Subramanian Swamy.

He merely accuses the opponents of plotting to “break India” because he is a fervent supporter of Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

When the crony capitalist connection between Prime Minister Modi and Gautam Adani was exposed by the Adani fraud, he left no evidence unturned to show that the scam was an effort to damage Modi and India’s reputation. He claimed that George Soros and other individuals have organized a global plot to “declare war on Modi.”

Declaring the opposition to the law as “an attack on India,” he defended the prejudiced Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA). Additionally, he published a fabricated image of hurt police officers in an effort to refute Muslim calls for the repeal of the harsh laws.

A population control measure is necessary, in Bhandari’s opinion, to stop India’s population from increasing because of Muslims.

He also made fun of the need that Muslim women wear the hijab in Karnataka’s educational institutions by saying that they do so out of “societal pressure.”

He posted numerous videos on his YouTube channel in support of the propaganda film The Kerala Story and to mark its box office triumph. The Kerala Story is accused of fabricating information in order to demonize Muslims.

He frequently promotes the Hindutva (Hindu nationalist) narrative in his YouTube videos to non-BJP politicians and public personalities.

His Twitter feed is a constant source of Islamophobic disinformation and propaganda. He was bold enough to demand protection for “nationalist” accounts on social media and to protest about Twitter’s “discriminatory and unfair practices,” which he said posed a “threat to national security,” in a meeting with the Union Home Minister.
