Hindu nationalists go to court over lion named after Muslim emperor in India

Controversy in West Bengal centres around Akbar the lion and Sita, named for a Hindu deity, being placed in the same enclosure

The Guardian

30+ years after 400-yr-old #BabriMasjid was demolished by #HinduNationalists, a new temple has been built in #Ayodhya.

Dec 6, 1992 was one of independent #India's darkest days. The disputed site sits on one of its biggest religious fault-lines — thousands were killed in the violence that broke out.

"Religious sentiments are greater than the Constitution. If we had not done what we did, then the temple could never have been built," says one religious fanatic.

>> no doubt people interpreted it as the democracy of minority-appeasement and majority-shaming

Majority of #India interpreted "#secular" just fine, except #FarRight #HinduNationalists.

In 1947 they wanted ALL land (incl E. & W. #Pakistan) with no partition (#UncannySimilarities with #FromTheRiverToTheSea) and assassinated #Gandhi for his pro-partition stance in 1948.

Just like #FarRight in #Israel assassinated Yitzhak #Rabin in 1995 ➡️ https://mastodon.social/@rameshgupta/111470408491233080

If #FarRight #ChristianFascists like #Trump who hate #Muslims so much that might join #JewishNationalists and #HinduNationalists in #lockstep, the world will see #pogroms against Muslims on a global scale ➡️ https://mastodon.social/@rameshgupta/111511566552365809

This isn't just about #Palestine.

#Trump would be a threat to Muslims WORLDWIDE and a threat to #worldSecurity.

WHAT would you vote for?

Modi and his #HinduNationalists are an ongoing problem.

This evolving story about #Hindutva is especially troubling with rising #ChristoFascism in #US as I pointed out ➡️ https://mastodon.social/@rameshgupta/111376788032217265

#Muslims, not just in #America, but all over the world will fully deserve what's in store for them with a 2nd #Trump term, and they will have #noOneToBlame other than themselves

Once #RightWing #JewishNationalists, #HinduNationalists, and #ChristianFascists are in #lockstep, #pogroms against Muslims on a global scale cannot be ruled out

He live-streamed his attacks on Indian Muslims. YouTube gave him an award.

Hindu vigilantes have long tried to stop the cow trade, often carried out by Muslims, but have become more extreme and flamboyant thanks to American social media platforms that reward them with large online followings.
