The communal riots erupted in the Nuh district of Haryana during a Braj Mandal Yatra organised by the Vishwa Hindu Parishad (VHP) on July 31, 2023. The flames of hatred destroyed many things, but not everything. However, it is believed that nothing can harm the world as long as humanity is alive. A woman by the name of Yogita is an example of this. She not only managed a shop for Kallu Mian, who had lost his shop, together with the mattresses and cotton it contained, as a result of violence, but she also kept a stock of new mattresses there so he could dispel the darkness that the evildoers had brought into his life.
Yogita Bhayana, a social activist and the founder of the NGO ‘People Against Rape in India (PARI)’, who is now gaining prominence for her social media video going viral, supports Kallu Mian and also makes the point that even if criminals are numerous, ‘we are millions of times more numerous than them’. The riots that escalated in Gurugram resulted in the burning down of Kallu Mian's shop.
Black clouds and flames were visible in the sky during the rioting. Images of the destruction became more lucid as the fires subsided and the smoke disappeared from the sky. The national media broadcast this tragedy and shouted and screamed a tonne of questions. However, some of these stories that must have disappointed the sectarians have emerged behind these destructive indicators. They must have had their expectations shattered. Communal harmony was the power or quality that remained untarnished despite bloodshed and arson. There were certain faces that were being referred to as "the Angels of Nuh" that rescued lives, secured the fearful and distressed, or rather brought victims to safe regions while the media was confused by the names of a few anti-social elements. These individuals, who we refer to as the pioneers of the Ganga Jamuni culture and who do not make caste or religious distinctions even in the most challenging of circumstances, symbolise the real hope of the country.
Yogita has also surfaced as a character who approached Nuh after viewing the footage of Kallu Khan's ash-filled shop. In a social media video going viral, Yogita is shown giving Kallu Khan a new shop as a gift and stocking it with supplies for his shop.
In the video, she says, "We are with you." There is absolutely no reason to be afraid. She says, pointing to a young man. I have viewed the video by Zakirji. Since then, I've given a lot of thought, and I'm upset and concerned. I believed that you needed our assistance, therefore we reached out to you.
Kallu Khan says, "Everyone is helping, and I'm very happy." Yogita asserts that more people will help you through us now that the shop is open. I pray that God willing, your job will be so good that you will never be without anything and that other people will be saved in the same way as you. I want to help them too. A young man named Zakir recites the poems of Rahat Indori in the video while resting his hand on Kallu Khan's shoulder.
Na Hamsafar Na Kisi Hamnasheen Se Niklega
Hamaare Paaon Ka Kaanta Hamin Se Niklega
This couplet becomes true under these conditions and assistance. His store was set on fire by vandals, and the burned pieces and traces are still visible. Yogita Ji contacted Kallu Khan after viewing a post on social media and expressed her wish to assist Kallu Khan. Kallu Khan expresses gratitude to Yogita. Yogita then addresses Kallu Khan, saying, "If anyone bothers you, let us know, and we'll come to help you."
