आकांक्षा राज़ी, शाहवेज़ राज़ी, दोनों के परिवार राज़ी फिर पुलिस क्यों नहीं है राज़ी, मेरठ का मामला

Описание: In this report for The Red Mike, Saurabh Shukla brings us a gripping story from Meerut that feels more like a screenplay than reality. At its centre are Akansha Gautam and Shahvez Rana, two adults who simply want to get married.

• The Conflict: Despite both immediate families giving their blessings, local vigilante groups have branded the union "Love Jihad."
• The Failure: Instead of upholding the couple's constitutional right to marry under the Special Marriage Act, the local police have sided with the protesters, filing an FIR against the groom.
• The Identity: Akansha clarifies she is a Buddhist Ambedkarite, yet the state continues to treat her as a "Hindu victim" in need of forced protection.

Saurabh questions a system where the "shop" of fringe organizations runs on breaking families apart, often with the silent or active nod of the authorities.

[00:00:00 - 00:03:54] | Constitutional Rights on Trial
Saurabh sets a grim scene in Meerut. He highlights the irony of a democracy where two consenting adults are treated like criminals for a wedding scheduled for February 13th. While the couple followed the law, the police followed the demands of activists like Sachin Sirohi.

[00:00:08] Saurabh Shukla: "लड़का बालिग, लड़की बालिग और दोनों के परिवार राजी हैं... तो शादी से तो कोई रोक नहीं सकता।"
[00:03:16] Akansha Gautam: "चार लोगों के बनाए हुए संगठन से देश नहीं चलता है... मैं बौद्ध धर्म को मानती हूं, मैं अंबेडकरवादी हूं, सनातनी नहीं हूं। हिंदू संगठन कौन होते हैं यह शादी रुकवाने वाले?"

[00:03:55 - 00:07:15] | The Bride’s Defiance
In a viral interview with journalist Narendra, Akansha refuses to play the victim. She reveals a messy family dynamic where an uncle—seeking property—is using religious sentiment to block her happiness. She asks the state a pointed question: if these groups "protect" her by ruining her life, who will look after her family later?
Q&A Segment:
[00:06:11] Narendra (Journalist): "उनका कहना है कि ये लव जिहाद है..."
[00:06:21] Akansha Gautam: "लव जिहाद तब होगा ना जब हिंदू-मुस्लिम मैटर होगा। मैं हिंदू हूं ही नहीं... अगर कल को मुझे और मेरी मदर को कुछ होता है तो क्या ये सब लोग मेरे को आके पालेंगे? आप तो खुद ही उस बेटी को बदनाम कर रहे हो ना।"

[00:07:16 - 00:10:22] | Police or Partisans?
Saurabh pulls no punches when discussing the Meerut administration. He expresses a "deep disappointment" that the police, who take an oath to the Constitution, are acting like members of a fringe outfit. He notes that this climate forces couples to flee to Delhi just to exercise a basic human right.

[00:07:32] Saurabh Shukla: "सबसे बड़ा डिसपॉइंटमेंट हिंदू संगठन के लोगों से नहीं है, पुलिस प्रशासन से है... जो संविधान की शपथ तो लेते हैं लेकिन काम किसी हिंदू संगठन के जैसा ही करते हैं।"
[00:08:28] SP Rural (Meerut): "थाने पर एक तहरीर प्राप्त हुई थी जिसमें सुसंगत धाराओं में मुकदमा पंजीकृत है... स्पेशल मैरिज एक्ट में इनकी परमिशन भी कैंसिल की गई है।"

[00:10:23 - 00:13:34] | The Face of Vigilantism
The report shows chilling footage of activists boasting about their "success" in forcing banquet halls to cancel the wedding. They openly admit to tracking the couple’s every move and threatening to "change" or "shut" the girl away.

[00:11:28] Interviewer: "गुंडागर्दी हुई ना?"
[00:12:09] Hindu Activist: "इसे गुंडागर्दी कह लो कुछ कह लो... हम किसी भी कीमत पे कार्यक्रम होने नहीं देंगे... ना सगाई, ना शादी, ना रिसेप्शन, कुछ भी नहीं होगा।"

Conclusion
Saurabh Shukla ends with a stinging satire: sometimes, it feels like the person in the police uniform is someone else entirely. While the couple might eventually marry in another city or through the courts, the damage to the social fabric is already done. When the state stops being a protector and starts being a stakeholder in hate, the "largest democracy" loses a bit of its soul.
