Seattle city in the US recently passed a resolution on caste discrimination. There has been criticism of this move, alleging that by passing an ‘anti-caste’ resolution, the Seattle City Council has proved that Hinduphobia is being promoted in the US at an institutional level.
An article written by Panchjanya, an RSS affiliate, says, ‘Targeting Hindus in the name of anti-discriminatory laws is merely a tool to discriminate against Hindus in the US and elsewhere. In this resolution, Hindus, who are a minority in the US and are known all over the world for peace and harmony, have been marked for investigation.’
The institution form of ‘increasing Hinduphobia’ is becoming more dangerous, according to Panchjanya. The article further calls. ‘Harvard and Oxford universities as ‘dens of Hinduphobia’.
‘Here, India’s technical centers, such as the IITs, are accused of all sorts of things. IIT students are currently working in respectable positions across the world. Now, these students are being accused of casteism and racism without any evidence. The intention is to force these students to focus on mounting a defense rather than showing their talent,’ as per the article.
Panchjanya alleges that the critical race theory has morphed into the caste theory. ‘It is laughable that those who do this are called social scientists. Most social scientists do not have to pass IIT exams; they do not need to understand complex rules and principles. They just have to inflate a balloon, it said.
