WASHINGTON: A Hindu body in Washington has mentioned Uscirf’s report on religious freedom as the work of a member of the “Hinduphobik” commission while Muslim and Christian groups praise observations in it, demanding that the US declare India as a “state that is a special concern”.The US Commission for the International Religious Freedom Report or Uscirf Report recommends the administration of Biden to appoint India, China, Pakistan, Afghanistan, and 11 other countries as “countries that are of special concern” in the context of religious freedom.
Recommendations do not bind the US government.Hindupact, an American Hindu World Council initiative, in a statement accused that Uscirf had been taken over by “Indofobic and Hinduphobic members”.American Muslim Institution (AMI) and his colleague’s organization praised Uscirf’s recommendation, said the condition of religious freedom in India “deteriorated significantly” in 2021.
The Indian-American Christian Organization Federation and the Indian-American Muslim Council in a separate statement reportedly praised Uscirf’s recommendation.During a special virtual congress briefing, the day after the release of the report, Uscirf Anurima Bhargava’s commissioner accused that Indian government officials tolerate and were involved in religious persecution of Muslims and Christians with productive mass violence.
India has rejected such accusations. The senior US government officials have told members of Parliament that India has an excited civil society, an independent judicial and mature functional democracy, which has a sufficient mechanism to overcome the problem of internal human rights if there is.”This year’s report follows the pattern of reports that have emerged in previous years. Based on information available to the public on topics such as the Citizenship Amendment Law (CAA) and Kashmir, Uscirf’s report is a copy-and-paste points of the conversation that is sold By an agglomeration of Islamic groups that work with radical Islamic group justice for all whose platforms Commissioners Uscirf appeared regularly, “Alleged Utsav Chakrabarti, Executive Director of Hindupact.
“It is now clear that Uscirf has been taken over by Indofobic and Hinduphobic members. Many of these members have attended the Bashing India and Hindu events. It is not surprising that their selective observation is intended to promote the political agenda and further the election of their elections in certain communities,” said Ajay Shah, President of the American World Hindu Council (VHPA).In a statement, Koshy George, the Indian-American Christian organization federation, recommended that the US president and government accept Uscirf’s recommendation and mention India as a special concern “while it could still help protect the interests of America in the region for that long-term.
“This can also be very helpful in helping the Indian Union remain a liberal democracy that functions by respecting all religious and linguistic minorities,” he said.Indian-American Muslim Council Executive Director Rasheed Ahmed said they praised Uscirf for “refusing to surrender to the lobby of the US-based Hindu nationalist nationalist groups based on the basic reality of minority in India is constant harassment and violence and violence”.”Considering the burdensome information presented in this report, US State Department officials must now act on the recommendations made by Uscirf by officially appointing India as BPK and by imposing a targeted sanction to the Indian government to ask the officials responsible for pushing Hatred, “said Syed Afzal Ali, President of IAMC.
