Dr. Mohan Bhagwat, on what the Hindu tradition asks of a Hindu: "If you want to call yourself Hindu, you must believe that all paths are leading to the same goal and that every human has dignity."

A Kannada actress brutally cook Kriti Sanon🚨
Q: Kriti Sanon is facing backlash for wearing a revealing outfit during her Raksha Bandhan campaign. What is your take on this controversy?
Actress: Look, I believe in women's freedom, but I won't support Kriti wearing something inappropriate for a sacred festival. It ruins the essence of our traditions.
Q: But some say she is just being unfairly targeted for her clothes?
Actress: Please don't use feminism to hide hypocrisy. I have just one simple question: would she wear this exact same outfit for an Eid campaign? No. This selective modernism only happens during our festivals, and that's the real issue.
Massive respect for not bootlicking Bollywood and speaking the truth🙌
They remove the kalawa, kanthi mala, wipe off the tika, and strip away every visible Hindu symbol before allowing Hindu students into exam halls.
But burqa & hijab? Apparently, those come with a special privilege—mobile phones included.
Because, of course, some symbols must be removed, while others apparently come with special rights.
Wake up, @EduMinOfIndia. Stop harassing Hindu students. Equal rules must mean equal rules.
Burning with anti-Hindu hatred, groups opposing the 'Universal Oneness' Celebration in New York are running a malicious campaign to cancel the event.
They have crossed the line from political dissent into a dishonest, systemic campaign of hostility.
Not only does this attack the First Amendment rights of American citizens, but it also puts minority Hindu-Americans in harm’s way.
These groups have a documented history of Hinduphobic activity, including, for example in 2021... (see below)
Mohd Imran met Muskan at a gym. Probably she was still a minor when he started grooming her. She initially responded but later quit
And now the girl, who is from the Hindu community, is dead. Imran entered her house in Delhi's Tilak Nagar and stabbed her to death yesterday
Once trapped, the usual end result typically is they'll either circulate your intimate videos or force you to be one of the wives or kill you for leaving

#USCIS proposed #$103K #H1B fee could choke startups & costs billions to industry. Total #OPT#H1b $203K will make #student-to-work pathway impossible. #Stop exorbitant fees, #Congress to constrain the hikes, & industry to protect America’s talent & competitiveness @DNC@RNC
See my report. Despite Samad Qureshi’s shocking revelation that he was paid to record sexual videos with girls, and specifically Hindu girls, the police investigation appears limited to proving charges of sexual assault on a child and outraging modesty of a woman
Will there be an investigation into the larger allegation of an organised operation involving communal targeting, money and blackmail? @DelhiPolice
1. What's wrong with the Giva ad?
Nothing you see on TV/advertisement or/big screen, especially in big budget projects, is innocent or accidental
The Giva ad continues a broader trend in how film-entertainment and ad industries have treated cultural sensitivities of the two majority communities very differently for years - something Gems of Bollywood has exposed so clearly
Look at the way popular culture has marketed Hindu festivals for years. For instance, check any compilation for suggestions for Diwali playlist:
“Abhi Toh Party Shuru Hui Hai”
“Let’s Nacho”
“Tamma Tamma Again”
But typical suggestions for Eid playlist:
“Noor-e-Khuda”
“Maula Ali”
“Kun Faya Kun”
Typical media suggestions for Diwali outfit ideas these days: sexualised styling - cleavage, revealing blouses, familiar Bollywood glamour
Typical outfit suggestions for Eid: Rich and covered
This means that they know what cultural sensitivity looks like, what a family gathering looks like, what sanctity of a festival looks like
But they apply it only where they want
The test of their intention is simple. Look at the image attached. Imagine her holding a plate for Iftari and the text saying Eid. Will any brand ever run such an ad?
2. Are these ads really made to increase sales during Rakhi?
The primary purpose of such an advertisement is not to sell jewellery for Rakhi. Conduct a market survey. Show consumers the ad and ask them whether the imagery is prompting them to buy Giva jewellery on Rakhi for their sisters. I doubt the answer would be overwhelmingly yes
Modern advertising works at a deeper level than simply saying buy this product. It is often aimed at shaping long-term attitudes
When the same kind of imagery is repeatedly used around certain festivals, weddings and family occasions, it leads to normalisation of a particular culture
Much of it seems to be aimed at creating a society where every aspect of a woman's life is sexualised. I would say it is the same mindset that wants to legalise adult men having sex with schoolgirls
3. How should the public respond?
Stop treating these celebrities as icons and withdraw your interest from them
The same actress as in the ad did Thumkeshwari item number and then pretended to be Ma Sita on screen - until we vehemently opposed it, ran a campaign, people responded and the movie bombed
Reject them from every aspect of your life where you have a choice
Mohan Bhagwat @DrMohanBhagwat hasn’t even reached Canada and a campaign against the RSS is already underway.
Canadian MPs Heather McPherson and Jenny Kwan have called for Bhagwat to be barred from entering Canada and for the RSS to be banned.
Behind the campaign, more than 40 advocacy and civil society groups are reportedly involved, with several names linked to broader international campaigns around Kashmir, CAA, minority rights and religious freedom.
Who is driving this campaign and how does the Justice For All (JFA) network fit into the larger ecosystem?

IAMC: Anti-Hindu Rhetoric and Alleged Islamist Ties
A Middle East Forum investigation revealed that IAMC has maintained relationships with Islamist figures and individuals linked to extremist organizations, while also accusing the group of anti-Hindu rhetoric https://t.co/AIRDttbIWl
Across Canada and the United States, Hindu families, student groups, and traditional temples report that any effort to preserve, express, or defend Hindu identity is routinely painted as political extremism.
When political epithets like “Sanghi” or “far-right” are broadly applied to anyone standing up for Hindu traditions, the distinction between foreign politics and diaspora religious life vanishes.
