India's Muslim Protesters Face Targeted Harassment Amid Hate

In India, some students and people who help them have been protesting for their rights.

Some Muslim people who joined these protests were stopped by police and asked many questions.

One man named Mohammed Junaid gave free food to the protesters and was later taken to the police station.

In Assam, three young Muslims were arrested for making a WhatsApp group to support a protest.

In West Bengal, the chief minister called the protest a 'Friday protest' and many people were arrested under a new law called the Goonda Act.

These events made many Muslims worry that if they join protests, they might be treated unfairly.

The courts will decide if the arrests were legal, but the main question is why Muslims feel they are treated differently when they protest.
