One wrote, "Love jihad bolne wale patli gali se nikal ja." Another commented, "India ki wo begherat awaam jo mazhab pe bakwas kar rahi thi, I think ab mu pe chanta lag gaya hoga sabke! Jab ek Muslim Hindu ladki ko izzat de kar biwi bana kar uske saath pooja kar raha hai toh Hindu ladki uske saath dargah kyun nahi jaa sakti?? They are happy, ab bash dena inko." A third user shared, "Abhi love jihad bolne wale ramu log kahan gaye?"
