🇮🇳 Prime Minister Modi in recent podcast with @lexfridman recalls ‘Howdy Modi’ in Houston: “while packed stadiums are common in sports, this was extraordinary”.
JLF inspired audiences & cemented its place as cultural highlight, fusing literature, activism into thoughtprovoking weekend. My @PTI_News report👇.@JLFLitfest @cdivakaruni @ShashiTharoor @SanjoyRoyTWA https://t.co/xjHchDvPkQ

@RamaManne@GovAbbott@LtGovTX@TDEM@ERCOT_ISO@CenterPoint@KHOU Unbelievable in soon to be the third largest city on the coast. Awfully underprepared for any tropical event. It was barely a category 1 event. CenterPoint must improve the infrastructure - it’s criminal negligence.
We are glad to see some much overdue attention to the issue of repeated and frighteningly frequent attacks on #HinduTemples. We've been calling attention to the slew of 6 or more attacks in just the Bay Area #California between Nov 2023-Jan 2024, but the problem is older and deeper. 2022 saw its own set of attacks on Hindu temples in #NewYork and elsewhere.
As we said in Dec. 2023, when the Bay Area attacks began, freedom of religion means little when sacred spaces that are meant to be an oasis of peace and calm, are vandalized. Worse, the community does not see any action against the perpetrators while our local and national media in the US ignore or downplay the issue.
We thank @CongressmanRaja , @ShriThanedar, @RoKhanna , @RepBera and @Repjayapal for finally conveying the deep fear that has been haunting the #Hindu community in the US. We ask for a national discussion on #Hinduphobia and #antiHindu hate to tackle the root cause of these attacks. We also ask for other lawmakers at all levels, to step up and take action.
