Delhi is India's national capital and its security and police report directly to the Union home ministry headed by Hindu supremacist BJP's Amit Shah, who is 2nd only to Modi.
Previously these armed and violent Hindu suprmacist mobs used to target Muslims during their Friday prayers, now they've expanded to target Christians.
That's awful for those people. Sadly, many Christians in the US use stories like this to boost their own persecution complex so that they can justify (to themselves) their own persecution of other people.
Those who care about Christians/ Muslims being persecuted in India use their skills and resources to call it out and try to stop it. They lobby for sanctions against the persecuting state. There are those who put their lives and the lives of their famiies and friends in India at risk by calling out these hate crimes perpetrated by the Hindu supremacist Modi govt.
Yet, we've also seen Modi being welcomed and dined in the White house,, welcomed and feted and honored with the Grand Croix de Legion de l'Honneur by French President 'Macron, welcomed and honured with state awards in Islamic countries. The govt.s of all these countries are all aware of what has been happening in India since 2014, but they don't give a damn.
In western countries that's a fair viewpoint, but in countries like India, Pakistan, Bangladesh etc christians are oppressed & victimised quite regularly, being in the minority and surrounded by devotees of 'rival' religions..
In India, most Christians belong to the oppressed castes whose ancestors converted to Christianity to escape Hindu oppession and to get an education that had been denied to their caste.
Even though, they've been Christians for generations, Hindu supremacists hate them because their ancestors & they escaped religious and caste oppression. hindu supremacists derisively call them "rice bags" because of a myth that they changed their religion for a bag of rice. my q to this "How shitty their old religion must've been to them, if they willing accepted a new religion for a bag of rice in rice-growing India?".
No, Christians have a long history of religious persecution. Or maybe you don't remember what the church was like in the 14-1600s. I am in favour of revenge against such a horrible religion, who committed the crusades, the inquisition, the banning of science, and nowadays tries its best to ban women and LGBT+ people's rights.
Imagine being so clueless as to be completely unaware of Muslim persecution by Hindu nationalist extremists in India you end up self-reporting your Islamophobia.
