In anticipation of the widely celebrated Islamic festival of Eid al-Adha, also known as Bakrid, which is set to be observed this week both in India and around the globe, the government and local authorities have issued guidelines urging the public to practice their religious rites respectfully and without infringing upon the rights of others. Despite these instructions, a controversial event has surfaced in Mumbai that has sparked significant unrest among the Hindu community. A goat, which was slated for ritual sacrifice as part of Bakrid celebrations, was found with the sacred Hindu name "Ram" marked on its back.

Despite numerous laws and ongoing awareness campaigns aimed at curbing such incidents, the distressing phenomenon referred to as "Love Jihad" persists unabated in India. Recent reports from two northern cities, Jaipur in Rajasthan and Agra in Uttar Pradesh, illustrate the severity and continuing nature of these cases.
