Indians showed their true colors after Virat Kohli supported Muslim Cricketer Mohammad Shami.
Stooping so low, some hardline Hindus issued rape threats to Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma‘s nine-month-old daughter.
What a SHAME!

THIS is what BJP & RSS have done to India! 👇
Stay safe @imVkohli & @AnushkaSharma – #Pakistan stands with you! ✌ pic.twitter.com/NT9relXKnl
First shami was targeted, then kohli for speaking up for him, & now Indians are targeting virat's wife anushka & his daughter? Come on, his family has nothing to do with India's poor performance. It's not only kohli's fault, the whole team is responsible for it. Show some decency

The reason given by the hardliners is Kohli’s support to Mohammed Shami and called out religious discrimination, unequivocally.
Shami had faced harsh online abuse after India lost to arch-rival Pakistan by 10 wickets at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium on October 24.
A week after the match, Kohli came out in support of Shami. But that cost him more than he would have expected. Some people could not digest and resorted to online abuse.
The bigots of Hinduvata under Modi targeted the couple and did not even spare Kohli’s nine-month-old daughter, and issued rape threats.
Kohli had launched a blistering attack on his team’s critics, blasting them as “spineless” and “pathetic”, reserving particular vitriol for the trolls who blamed Shami for the loss last week.
“There’s a good reason why we are playing on the field and not a bunch of spineless people on social media that have no courage to actually speak to any individual in person,” said Kohli.
On Twitter thousands also poured in in support of the couple.

Sonia said: “Kohli and Anushka’s 10 month old daughter is getting rape threats because Kohli said religious discrimination is wrong.

Horrendous tweets about Kohli-Anushka’s not even a year-old daughter reveal how much India, as a society, has decayed.

It’s the same people who put Muslim women on auction. And nothing emboldens them more than the current political environment in the country.
