"Food Jihad" Harassment: Muslim Vendor Humiliated at Medaram Jatara Festival! Telangana Outrage

Описание: In a heart-wrenching incident at Telangana's Medaram Jatara, a poor Muslim street vendor was publicly shamed by Tejaswi News YouTubers over baseless "food jihad" accusations.
Shaik Shaiksha Vali from Kurnool was forced to eat his own khova buns on camera and show his Aadhaar card amid a viral video sparking communal tensions.

Rahul from The Rooster News dives deep into this viral controversy, uncovering the full timeline, community backlash, and calls for action against hate-mongering creators.
Join Rahul as he unpacks the harrowing story of Shaik Shaiksha Vali, a humble vendor selling affordable Rs 10 khova buns at one of India's largest tribal festivals. During the vibrant Medaram Jatara (Sammakka Saralamma Jatara) from January 28-31, 2026, which drew over 15 million devotees to Mulugu district, Vali's stall became a target for Tejaswi News—a Telugu YouTube channel notorious for provocative content since its launch in July 2025. Led by Balu Balaji Goud, the team approached under the guise of a "food safety check," but quickly escalated to slinging "food jihad" conspiracy theories, alleging Muslims poison food for non-Muslims.

Watch the exclusive breakdown of the 12-minute viral video (posted February 5, 2026), from initial questioning over low prices and missing expiry dates, to coercing Vali to "prove" his sweets safe by eating them amid jeers from a growing crowd in colorful sarees and kurtas. No police showed up despite their call to 100, leaving Vali distressed and surrounded by 20+ onlookers filming on phones. This wasn't isolated—Tejaswi News has a pattern of targeting Muslim vendors at festivals like this, fueling Islamophobia for clicks and views.

But here's the inspiring twist: The backlash was swift and powerful! Kurnool locals rallied with sympathy buys, influencers like Shan Renjarla Rajesh and Dasaram Ashish Kumar voiced support ("Don't worry, brother, we are with you!"), and #SupportShaikVali trended on X and Instagram. Even TDP leader Paritala Sreeram condemned it: "Hunger has no caste, self-respect has no religion." Vali's sales surged, proving community unity over division. As one resident said, "There's no Hindu-Muslim between us—we've been living peacefully for years."

This report, based on eyewitness accounts, video analysis, and media coverage, exposes the dangers of sensationalist "consumer awareness" that incites hate. "Food jihad" narratives, popularized since 2022, have led to similar debunked cases in UP and Maharashtra, damaging livelihoods at inclusive events. We demand YouTube accountability—demonetize channels spreading communal poison!
