In yet another case of 'Love Jihad' in Meerut, Uttar Pradesh, a local girl has allegedly eloped to Dubai at the call of a Pakistani-origin man residing in Dubai. BJP MP from Meerut, Rajendra Agarwal, raised the shocking issue during the Zero Hour in Lok Sabha on Thursday.

'It seems that the girl has been taken to Dubai by Nadeem'

The BJP MP revealed in the House that elopement appeared pre-planned and well-executed where one Nadeem arranged passport and visa for the Meerut girl. While the victim's parent met the MP and later the matter was brought into the notice of SSP Meerut, the girl went missing.

"It seems that the girl has been taken to Dubai by Nadeem. The police acted late," said Rajendra Agarwal. The BJP leader requested Speaker Om Birla to initiate an enquiry with an objective to trace the girl.

The incident of elopement has caused widespread concern in the area. In the meantime, the tweet posted by the girl's father is doing the rounds on the internet.

'My innocent daughter has been entrapped in love jihad' 

Kapil Gupta, in an emotional tweet posted on November 17, wrote: “I am the helpless father of an 18-year-old daughter. My innocent daughter has been entrapped in love jihad. The boy, who had been talking to my daughter as ‘Romeo’ for some time, is a Pakistani. He coaxed my daughter into moving to Dubai. I don’t know how my daughter will be doing,” tweeted the resident of Kanker Khera locality.
