@chixxsays In any case, the Indian Constitution fully guarantees equality of faith. Christianity and Christians are as much Indian as are Hinduism and Hindus.

@mrsinha The person right next to Rahul Gandhi is Shree Thanedar. He is very close to prime minister Modi.

I’m confused as to what the Saudi funded @bridgeinit @Georgetown actually builds or is trying to build. They mostly seem solely to focus on tearing down any bridges between the Hindu community and anyone else. Here, working with Raqib Naik, infamous for his doxxing campaign against @rajiv_pandit in Dallas, drop an attack on one of the largest Hindu charities in the U.S. that literally builds schools for poor children.

Do you have anything to say about Department of Justice indictment on RAW agent Vikash Yadav? As a U.S. citizen, what’s your view on Modi government’s attempts to kill US citizens?
Suhag A. Shukla@SuhagAShukla

In the last month, HAF has been targeted with false allegations of dual loyalty by @Harpers, @sacbee_news@Joerubincreates and now @mukta_jo in an @AlJazeera piece funded by @columbiajourn. Yup, we’ve got their attention and we’re effective 💪🏼! Slow clap for Mukta and what she says was “7+ months” of work to find that HAF’s advocacy for Hindu American interests is legal and on behalf of no entity besides the 4 million strong Hindu American community 👏 We could have saved @columbiajourn a lot of money!

It is really quite sad to see the MEA—and most of the Indian media—clutching at straws. This is what the Toronto Star quotes Trudeau as saying at the inquiry, ABOUT THE SITUATION IN SEPT 2023: “Trudeau said India insisted “‘show us the evidence.’ And at that point, it was primarily intelligence, not hard evidentiary proof. So we said, ‘well, let’s work together and look into your security services,’” but the Indian response was “‘No, no, no, we’re not doing that.’” Most Indian news headlines and even reports conveniently omit the words “And at that point” to suggest Trudeau is speaking about last week’s accusations by Ottawa! Sample this headline from @htTweets: “MEA hits back after Justin Trudeau admits Canada had ‘no hard evidentiary proof’ linking India to Hardeep Nijjar killing”. Also conveniently brushed aside is the fact that intelligence agencies gather intelligence, the police gather hard evidentiary proof and the courts pass judgment on this. Virtually all of India’s allegations about Pakistani official involvement in acts of violence in India over the past few decades, for example, fall within the realm of “intelligence”. This does not make them any less valid. If Pakistan were to cooperate with India, a lot of this intelligence would become hard evidentiary proof, good enough for a court of law to convict. Finally, the MEA, in its desperation to sidetrack the issue at hand, wilfully ducks another inconvenient fact: the US indictment in the Pannun case says CC1, an Indian security official, had access to a video of Nijjar’s lifeless body hours after he was shot dead: “CC-1 sent GUPTA a video clip showing Nijjar’s bloody body slumped in his vehicle.” Intercepted conversations between Nikhil Gupta and CC1 showed the latter’s involvement in the Nijjar murder. Why is this relevant? Because if Modi has now thrown CC1 under the bus—dismissing him and having him arrested for the Pannun plot—he can no longer disavow knowledge of the Nijjar killing either. CC1 knows who shot and sent that video. So there was at least one Indian govt official with a nexus to the Nijjar murder. That is where the MEA’s statements on Canada fall flat. The only way to square the circle is for the MEA to say publicly that India’s “strategic ally”, the US, is also acting irresponsibly and that Biden, Harris & Co are maligning the Indian government, and helping Trudeau malign India, as part of their “vote bank politics”. Somehow I don’t think the Modi government will say such a thing.

Why do you want to protect an ideology and an organization whose follower assassinated Mahatma Gandhi?
Hindu American Foundation@HinduAmerican

As high tension grips Indo-Canadian ties, it is imperative that Canada’s political leaders are sensitive to the impact on over a million Indian origin people living in Canada. A prominent political leader, @theJagmeetSingh hijacking the moment to call for a ban on an ostensible “RSS network” is dangerous. That term is defined in Canada, by a Singh allied group, as a dog whistle to target several active Hindu charities and community orgs. We deplore these comments as an inappropriate targeting of Hindu Canadians, especially in light of recent Hindu temple attacks and the brutal assault of a Hindu Canadian journalist.

@mairal The term Hindutva is 100 years old only. It was created by Savarkar. No ancient Indian scripture such as Ramayana, Mahabharata, Vedas, etc., uses the word Hindu.

That’s your view. And that of the Western media. And some of the folks who may want to use Hindutva for their political goals. It’s not my view. Nor of the majority of Hindus. For them, Hindutva means Hinduness, literally. State of being a Hindu. And the Hinduness I experienced growing up led me to do the global health work I do. Inclusion is the very foundation of this great faith.

Ram Temple healed so much that it healed Ayodhya’s Hindus from the curse of Hindutva who then defeated the BJP in the parliamentary election. Even Allahabad, too, the seat of the biggest Kumbh Mela. Defeat Hindu Supremacism! Defeat BJP! Defeat RSS!
Anurag Mairal@mairal

I am glad we are having this discussion. There has been so much disinformation on this topic by folks who are distorting history and legal judgements to create divisions in the community. Both @Raju4Equality and @SunitaSunitaV are being disingenuous. Ram Temple became a healing event for nearly a billion Hindus, and it happened legally. India’s highest court - which no one will ever accuse of being biased in anyway - allowed building of the temple and considered 400 years of history (not just going back to 1947, as Raju does in his analysis) in doing so. Yet, it’s important to acknowledge that Babri masjid was illegally demolished by a mob. That was indeed a divisive event. It led to a lot of a riots in India. But building of the temple happened in a legal and constructive way. To call building of Ram temple as a divisive event is deliberate ignorance of facts and sentiments about this historical redressal of a wrong that has been perpetuated for centuries. To denigrate the float that celebrates that symbol of faith is victimizing the community all over again. The float is a wonderful opportunity to celebrate that redressal. But @Hindus4HR are intent on turning this into a controversy, egged on by well-known Islamist organizations with ties to extremist ideologies, for a simple reason: to divide Indian American community and to further their brand of extreme politics. We see the impact of that sort of politics in every part of America. Do look at their track record. Please. @HinduAmerican and NY Indian American community - thank you for staying on the side of truth on this. @ericadamsfornyc - I hope you are not browbeaten into siding with divisive forces here.

@mairal Good you clarified. Because Hindutva is not faith. It is fascist politics. And it is already being defeated! Hindutva is the same as Christian nationalism, as white racism, as Islamic extremism, as Buddhist nationalism. Hindutva excludes. Hinduism includes.

@ajitsahi You are conflating faith and politics. Therein is the problem with your activism: it’s Hinduphobic because you cannot differentiate between BJP and Hindu faithfuls.

Mohandas Pai should know he has no business dictating to New York City and its people how to run their affairs. Why is he interfering in — how do the Indians say it? — the “internal affairs” of another country?
Mohandas Pai@TVMohandasPai

This temple unites all Indians. Who is the crazy person @SunitaSunitaV supporter of Jihadis trying to divide Indians? The temple is built on a site which was legally cleared by the SC. Jihadis and Islamists cannot dictate to Indians what they should do.look at BD when innocent Hindus are being killed and this jihadi supporter has no words to express protest.

The situation in #Bangladesh is a foreign policy disaster for India. Both @DrSJaishankar and #AjitDoval must resign. They have proved to be utter failures. Modi has lost leverage in Sri Lanka, Afghanistan, Nepal and Maldives already. And now Bangladesh. Modi has totally failed.

. @AmericanAir You should refund the airfare I paid because you canceled my July 19 flight and rebooked me on another 23 hours later. Your trip credit is forcing me to buy Main Cabin tickets. I will have to file an official complaint with the @USDOT if you fail to refund.

The mafia rule of Narendra Modi is over. I am proud to be from Allahabad and Uttar Pradesh. In the next five years, Hindu nationalism will be fully defeated in India. The killers of Mahatma Gandhi will be shown the door once and for all.

Three Indian citizens have been attacked in California in what could be a hate crime. Hope the Indian diplomats in the US will immediately support the victims and not ignore them merely because they are Muslims.
