Indian Pretence Of Secularism And Continuous Persecution Of Minorities.

The suppression of minorities' freedom in India was already grave but in the Modi led regime they are facing all kinds of humiliation, bigotry, restriction on free expression and religious freedom that one can only imagine. Minorities whether Christian, Sikhs, Muslims or Dalits are victims of Hindus extremism, narrow-mindedness and state sponsored terrorism. It is in the backdrop of Hindutva ideology and mind-set that hate crimes against minorities have become a norm in Indian society. The mobs of RSS, Shiv Sena, and Bajrang Dal are executing the worst forms of abuse on the minorities with impunity.

India's ongoing incursion of laws targeting minorities have ignited protests which mushroom into riots after RSS goons get involved. Religious bigotry has brought the Muslim and Sikh communities face to face with the government. The false image of stability that the Modi regime has built will explode soon, taking with it India's falsely projected image of a secular, peaceful and blissful state.
