KARACHI: Indian Prime Minister Modi’s madness is at its peak when it is reported that he is making case that he is an irreplaceable global leader who holds key to world peace. Western leaders are looking to him as partner to stand firm against rising China and to push back on Russia’s aggression in Ukraine. Never before in his career in Hindu nationalist politics has Modi found himself more emboldened? It’s unconscionable that international community remains silent in face of what is going on.According to Indian Muslim journalist Rana Ayyub; Modi is enflaming hatred of Muslims in India, as world looks other way. As foreign dignitaries and celebrities continue to visit India last month ahead of so-called G-20 summit, they turned blind eye to what is happening in India against biggest Muslim minority.

As Zendaya, Gigi Hadid, Tom Holland and Penélope Cruz flocked to Mumbai for opening of major new cultural center, Hindu mobs danced to music glorifying extermination of Muslims, brandishing swords outside mosques. And around the time that Modi welcomed Australian, Japanese and Italian Prime Ministers and US Secretary of State Antony Blinken, three Muslims were reportedly lynched. However, according to latest reports Indian Minister of External Affairs Dr. Jaisankar was recently somewhat shocked and puzzled to hear statement from US Secretary of State Antony Blinken about minority persecution in India for first time. Dr. Jaisankar was trying to shine forth through his talks, without proper reference to any reality. He made statement that he has view of American persecution. But Blinken replied with facts and figures. External Affairs Minister, 1 percent of US population is Hindus, fourth religious population, Christians-Jews-Muslims and Hindus. US population is 335 million. That is 8th largest Hindu population in world according to PEW research. Largest percentage of Hindus is in State of New Jersey, 3 percent. 2 percent in California and Delaware and 1 percent average in rest of States. They have highest income ratio in nation. There are hundreds of Hindu Temples nationwide.

First generation of Hindus migrated and 2nd and rest of the generation are born here. Indian Christians were not migrated, their roots are 2000 years. Can you tell us: How many Hindus were attacked in US? How many Hindu Temples were attacked in US?  Why Hindus are trying everything to migrate to Christian-majority nation from paradise of Hinduism under BJP rule led by PM Modi?

Do you know Jaisankar, in 10 States of India there is anti-conversion law specifically targeting Christians? Can you show any such law anywhere in US? That is number one violation of human rights. Among 50 nations where Christians are persecuted for their faith, India ranks 10th in place. Do you know attacks against the Christians in India since your BJP rule came into existence in 2014? “If you can’t answer these questions, then your logic has no validity.” Antony Blinken added.
