There were reports in the local media of some Bodo students being targeted in Pune where they are pursuing their higher studies in different educational institutions. The local TV news channels also claimed that a number of students have already boarded the train following the threat in Hyderabad and Bengaluru.

And from Kerala! I'm not surprised that they (or anyone non-Muslim) would feel unsafe in Hyderabad or Kerala, especially after Friday "prayers" or Ramzan. But Bangalore? If this doesn't propel Modi to become PM, it will be because the Sangh Parivar and the BJP have found yet another way to miss the tide.
