A video of a woman thrashing her husband’s Amul milk parlour, accusing him of tricking her into a marriage when he was wedded to another woman, is viral on social media. It has been shared with ‘love jihad’ spin despite the couple hailing from the same community. Tanishq’s controversial ad has given a rise to such claims. Videos of a woman assaulted by a man in Jharkhand and a father pleading his daughter to not get into a love marriage were shared with similar ‘love jihad’ spin.
