Hindu fanatics distribute tridents among people

January 3, 2023 04:19 PM


Hindu extremists have distributed tridents (trishuls) among hundreds of people in Indian state of Rajasthan apparently to use them against minorities.

Hindus supremacists were increasingly engaging in violent activities against minorities.

Indian intellectual Ashok Swain on Tuesday posted a video on Twitter to highlight the distribution of tridents in Rajasthan.

He remarked that no guns or bombs were used during the genocide in Rwanda as the killings were carried out with machetes.

Intolerance towards Muslims and other minority groups is on the rise in Narendra Modi-led India with Hindu extremist groups using violence, intimidation, and harassment against minorities on daily basis in the country.

Recently, a church was vandalized and a statue of Mary was destroyed in India’s Chhattisgarh state.

A video clip that went viral on social media shows that a violent mob is busy dismantling a statute of Mary.

There were 486 instances of violence and harassment against Christians in 2021, according to a report by the United Christian Forum (UCF), a rights body that maintains a database of incidents of violence and intimidation in India. This is an increase of 74% from 2020, when 279 such cases were reported on the UFC’s helpline.

The UCF said 2021 was the “most violent year for Christians” in India, with more than 104 violent incidents recorded in the last two months of the year. The report says Uttar Pradesh saw the most hate crimes against the minority group with 102 instances, followed by Chhattisgarh with 90. Four states – these two, plus Jharkhand (44) and Madhya Pradesh (38) – recorded 274 incidents of violence, 56% of the total, against Christians.
