That so wrong! @elonmusk please educate yourself. Swastika is an ancient Sanskrit symbol and word that means wellbeing and auspiciousness. It’s sacred to over 2 Billion Hindus, Buddhists and Jains worldwide who have never engaged in hate or genocide against Jews. Please use the correct terminology- the Nazi hate symbol is the Hakenkreuz - hooked cross. Thats just facts. Please post an apology and call the hate sign a Hakenkreuz.

We strongly condemn the August 15, 2024 #Hinduphobic event being hosted at @Concordia which seeks erasure of Hindu religion under the guise of fighting “Hindutva fascism" and which labels Hindu Canadian diaspora as “fascist”. The speakers and organizers of this conference are well know for their #AntiIndia and #AntiHindu narratives using #caste and false narratives of persecution of minorities in India.
The event attempts to negate the growing #HinduphobiaInCanada, including attacks on Hindu temples in Canada. It’s disturbing that the event is being held on a day when Indo-Canadians are celebrating India’s Independence Day. It’s deeply concerning that the event attempts to deny and divert attention of the world which is witnessing the targeted brutal persecution of #BangladeshiHindusGenocide echoed in Afghanistan, Pakistan where minorities are near extinction due to ethnic cleansing.
Under the guise of freedom of speech and intellectual freedom, the event is another attempt at “Dismantling Global Hindutva”which is actually an attempt to ‘dismantle Hindu dharma’. @RajivMessage has explained why such precious such events promote #Hinduphobia
“Hinduism has been portrayed as a human rights nightmare, the cause of every problem in India. The claims are extreme and not nuanced: women are abused specifically because of Hinduism. Caste problems and the plight of minority religions are entirely the fault of Hinduism. All gurus are quacks and abusive. Political leaders and public intellectuals who practise or express sympathy toward Hinduism are demonised. Attempts to reclaim Hindu heritage are viciously attacked. With the help of leftwing media, think tanks, and government policymakers in various countries, legislation and adverse campaigns have been launched against the core tenets and exemplars of Hinduism. Even the grammar of Sanskrit has been declared abusive in its very structure.” Read here https://t.co/9ZRPur92CM
It’s unacceptable that a university of Concordia is allowing such hateful Hinduphobic propaganda event. It’s shows great insensitivity to the large number (representing a quarter) of its international students of Indian origin. Such events further hate and prejudice on campus and endanger safety and security of Hindu and Indian students at Concordia and across all Canadian universities. We have already seen a major increase in attacks on Indian students - killings, suicides, violent attacks as reported in the media.
We appeal to all levels of Government, media and intellectuals to intervene. We demand that the @Concordia immediately cancel this divisive and hateful event and post an official apology to the entire Hindu Canadian community. We also urge the Canadian government to recognize #Hinduphobia and request lawmakers to take action against growing Hinduphobia in Canada. #Hinduphobia #StopAttacksOnHindus #HinduGenocideInBangladesh

@RajivMessage "In light of the genocide of Bangladeshi Hindus, it is important to note that certain individuals played a role in creating the conditions that enabled this atrocity. Find the names of those who incited Muslims against Hindus. Why haven't any police cases been filed against them?
@RajivMessage Genocide of Dalits in Bangladesh is not an issue for that D-Stock dude Mayur.
They're worried about non-existent threats to Minorities in India but safely ignoring minority plight in other parts of the Indian Subcontinent 🤡
@RajivMessage This is an attempt to undermine Diaspora Hindus—even those who are several generations removed from India. This is the same tactic used against the Jews. This is Blood Libel against Hindus!
Another Canadian university hijacked by Woke to attack Hindus. Deflecting attention away from BDesh. Blaming the Hindus as always. I wish there was debate with both sides present.
Thank you to the Jewish community here in Canada and worldwide to stand in solidarity with the Bangladeshi Hindus being persecuted. Our bond of friendship stands on a foundation of over 2000 years of mutual respect. Jews were never persecuted in India - Hindus dharma teaches peaceful coexistence with diverse spiritual paths.

@RiteshMalikCan@patrickbrownont@TimUppal First of find facts and than write the facts when referring to other countries history because being Indian we know how many neighbouring countries have caused harm and also many first world countries have been able to cause harm and create division in Africa, India too.
@oficottawa@RiteshMalikCan@patrickbrownont@TimUppal@patrickbrown Correct, First of all people who are accusing an incident which took place 40 years back we’re not born may be born but had no clue Indian society and diaspora and now when they are writing these comments they have never visited India and do not know the reality and facts. Stop!
