Bishnoi Samaj On Lawrence Bishnoi
The Bishnoi community in Fatehabad is voicing their deep hurt and frustration over the media’s portrayal of Lawrence Bishnoi’s gang as the “Bishnoi gang.” This concern was highlighted during a recent blood donation camp held at the Bishnoi temple, where community members gathered to discuss the impact of such associations. Their unanimous sentiment was clear: they refuse to tolerate the linkage of their name with criminal activities, and they are prepared to take legal action if necessary.
Lawrence Bishnoi has recently made headlines for threatening Bollywood actor Salman Khan, and his gang has been implicated in various violent incidents, including a shooting outside Khan’s residence and the alleged murder of Baba Siddiqui, a politician with ties to the actor. Amidst these controversies, the Bishnoi community feels that their identity as a peaceful, environmentally conscious group is being overshadowed by the criminal actions of one individual.

Vinod Kakad, the State Secretary of the All India Jeev Raksha Bishnoi Sabha, passionately articulated the community’s feelings. “We are an environment-loving society, and it deeply saddens us to be associated with a gang. If an individual is operating unlawfully, then his actions should not reflect on the entire community,” he explained. Kakad emphasized that while Lawrence Bishnoi’s actions may be wrong, the Bishnoi community does not condone his behavior, nor do they want to be linked to it.
Hansraj Godara, President of the Jeev Raksha Dal, added his perspective, stating, “One person may have a gang, but that does not mean the entire society is involved. Just as Salman Khan’s actions do not define all ‘Khans,’ Lawrence’s actions should not define the Bishnoi community.” He pointed out that the charges against Lawrence have not yet been conclusively determined, yet the media’s portrayal continues to negatively impact innocent members of their community.
The protest was attended by several prominent community leaders, including Bishnoi Sabha President Bhoop Singh Manjhu, Secretary Mahavir Manjhu, and Surjeet Dhukiya from the Sewak Dal. Together, they expressed their frustration and concern over how their identity is being misrepresented. The community, which prides itself on its commitment to animal welfare and environmental conservation, finds it particularly distressing that they are being associated with criminal behavior.
The Bishnoi community’s rich cultural heritage is built on principles of kindness, love for nature, and harmony. Therefore, they are determined to protect their name and legacy from being tarnished by the actions of a single individual. The protest at the blood donation camp served as a strong reminder of their values and their commitment to standing up against any form of injustice that threatens their identity.
