Confirming reports of anti-Hindu violence in #Narail 🇧🇩 over @facebook post locals considered blasphemous. Hindus attacked, stores destroyed, Chaitanya Mahaprabhu temple burned. @UNHumanRights @amnesty @hrw have not yet condemned. World must speak up.

Pakistani Hindu Notan Lal was just sentenced to life in prison for blasphemy, despite his accuser saying he lied about the event ever happening. Blasphemy laws have no place in the 21st century. Pakistan must free Notan Lal now. Help us take action:

#dghconference : "Harboring the idea that Hinduism is harmless and Hindutva is the culprit will not do anything to further democratic ideals." They are not even trying. There is no mask to remove. This is what it was always about. 40 universities have their name on this.

Yesterday we reported an @iskcon temple in Dhaka was attacked & looted by 150 men. We have since learned that it wasn't a temple, but a property owned by ISKCON, a short distance away, used for storage that was attacked. The original tweet and press statement have been deleted.

Shocked & outraged by the sheer inhumanity & #Hinduphobia in this storyline. Afghan Hindus & Sikhs are marked, persecuted and killed for simply existing. India’s offer of refuge to them and other Afghan allies is their only hope as the US, Canada & others have failed to step up.

India said it would prioritize the repatriation of Hindus and Sikhs from Afghanistan. The move drew comparisons to a recent citizenship law that discriminates against Muslims.

The gruesome beheading of #DayaBheel is the latest example of atrocities--from kidnappings, rape, forced conversions to murder--that Hindu women in #Pakistan face. Draconian blasphemy and apostasy laws are used daily to persecute:

The “Sikhs for Justice” leader’s rant threatening Canadian Hindus has led to a chorus of condemnation from Canadian leaders & ministries. That’s good. But the nexus between this terror group & the main proponent of #SB403 must be noted. @GavinNewsom , we ask you to #VetoSB403 .
