Pragya Thakur, 6 Others Walk Free in Malegaon Blast Case—After Shah's ‘No Hindu...Terrorist' Remark

Seventeen years after the deadly 2008 Malegaon blast rocked Maharashtra, a special NIA court in Mumbai has acquitted all seven accused — including BJP MP Pragya Singh Thakur and Lt Col Prasad Purohit — citing lack of concrete evidence. The judgment came just one day after Union Home Minister Amit Shah told the Rajya Sabha that "no Hindu can ever be a terrorist." The court emphasized that terrorism has no religion and that justice cannot be based on public perception or moral bias. This landmark verdict reignites debates on communal narratives, judicial process, and political influence in terror trials. #MalegaonBlast #PragyaThakur #AmitShah #HinduTerror #CourtVerdict #BreakingNews #IndiaPolitics #NIA #JudicialSystem #TerrorismDebate #CommunalPolitics #JusticeInIndia Also Read 2008 Malegaon Blast: Here Is The Timeline of The Case :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/2008-malegaon-blast-here-is-the-timeline-of-the-case-7816633.html?ref=DMDesc Pragya Thakur Makes Bhopal Girl Watch ‘The Kerala Story’, She Elopes With Muslim Days Later :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/pragya-thakur-makes-bhopal-girl-watch-the-kerala-story-she-elopes-with-muslim-days-later-3570005.html?ref=DMDesc BJP MP Pragya Thakur booked in Karnataka over 'keep your knives sharp' remark :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/bjp-mp-pragya-thakur-booked-in-karnataka-over-keep-your-knives-sharp-remark-3505152.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.178~PR.274~GR.125~ED.346~
