An elderly man, Haji Ashraf Munyar, was assaulted by passengers on a train near Igatpuri, Maharashtra, after being suspected of carrying beef. A viral video shows the passengers surrounding and attacking Munyar, who claimed he was carrying goat meat. AIMIM MP Imtiaz Jaleel criticized the government's inaction, calling for secular Indians to counter "these forces." The Government Railway Police registered an FIR against five passengers, and an investigation is ongoing. Munyar was traveling to his daughter's house in Kalyan when the attack occurred.
