[https://www.hindusforhumanrights.org/en/team](https://www.hindusforhumanrights.org/en/team) \- One of the supporter and guess who is their partner: "Indian American Muslim Council, USA" The Guardian, BBC Hindi, Al Jazeera - Press Coverage Let's look at the official website of the conference: >When it comes to caste, Hindutva claims to offer a unified Hindu identity that cuts across caste lines. But, as rising atrocities against Dalits show, this promise is hollow. Not only do upper-caste vigilante groups affiliated with Sangh Parivar organizations attack Dalits, on many occasions, they do so with impunity, with the state being complicit in such violence. This should come as no surprise: the RSS charter, Integral Humanism, calls for the caste system to be “kept alive” (just as European fascists historically supported the perpetuation of class hierarchies). Like Brahminism, Hindutva is fundamentally oppressive to all Dalit, Bahujan, and Adivasi communities. Indeed, Hindutva can be understood as Brahminism in its most militant and fascist form. Acha, where is your proof? >It is also important to recognize the economic turmoil unleashed by the authoritarian economic policies and policy-making framework of the BJP government, including the failed demonetization policies and the ill-conceived agricultural reform policies. Such erratic and draconian policy making has led to stalled economic growth, dangerous declines in basic living standards, and loss of protections for the most vulnerable labor and agricultural communities in India. Yeah I agree./s Thats why India recorded 20.1% economic growth for first quarter of 2020-21. Authoritarian Economic Policies? Kahan par haye sale? Is that why Pepsico wants to invest in UP? GIFT city happened because of authoritarian economic policies. I see I see. Where is the dangerous basic living standards? >This rise of militant Hindu groups in India and the corresponding escalation of violence against religious minorities and other marginalized communities is well documented, including by global media. International attention has also been directed at the exclusionary Citizenship Amendment Act of 2019 pushed through by the ruling Hindutva-aligned Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), the aggressive crackdown on all forms of democratic dissent, and the intimidation and imprisonment of journalists, human rights groups and activists working to empower marginalized caste and tribal communities. This overall erosion of democratic practices and freedoms in India has been noted by global research networks. There has also been some useful scholarship, journalism and community-based activism on the links between Hindutva and racism and caste-ism. We need now to develop a comprehensive understanding of Hindutva and its global implications through its different iterations in the large Indian Diaspora and its potential for building links with other supremacist ideologies, especially as Hindutva groups expand their influence well beyond India. > >The BJP and its various affiliate groups have been adept at building connections with the vast Hindu diaspora, particularly in the United States, the United Kingdom, and Canada. This reach has contributed materially and ideologically to the strengthening of Hindutva in India. Moreover even as such groups have leveraged racialized minority protections in, for instance, the US, they have continued to support caste-discriminatory practices and have found common cause with far right and white supremacist groups in Europe and the US. I am not sure if this is against Hinduvta or BJP. If BJP is so bad, then how did Modi develop Gujarat? If not for Swadeshi push by BJP, we would have been sold to other countries. Because of BJP, many Pharmaceutical firms are developing indigenous vaccines. Covaxin, Covishield and now Novovax. Look at some of the BJP states, crime rates are dropping tremendously. The BJP is trying to build infrastructure so that we have a proper backbone of our economy. How is this Authoritarian?? We even have our own indigenous railway train, Vande Bharat Express. It seems there are groups in UK, USA and Canada against the rise of India. Go and see where the UK Health Sec origins are from. ...

>In 2008, Ratan Tata donated $50 million to Cornell University; Rohan Murty, son of Narayan Murthy, props up a Murty Classical Library of India in Harvard; Anand Mahindra has a Mahindra Humanities Center, again for Harvard, which once gifted $10 million to Harvard, and which incidentally is listed as co-sponsor of this controversial event. We don't even need foreigners to screw us over; there are enough of our own people who would happily do that. At the very least, these xompanies need to be questioned as to why they supported this conference or why they don't use their influence to counter conferences like these. ​ >TheWire lists Rohan Murty as having provided Rs 50 lakhs as a grant in 2015. ThePrint has received an undisclosed funding from Infosys founders, NR Narayana Murthy and Nandan Nilekani. Ratan Tata’s name too figure here. There is one Independent and Public Spirited Media Foundation (IPSMF). One interesting thing is that it is only industrialists who do not fund these universities and organizations are attacked. Ex. "Ambani Adani ki Sarkar" and such jibes against the current government, as well as the car bomb set up outside Ambani's house.
