Congressman Calls for Action Against Attacks on Hindu Temples in the US

Congressman Shri Thanedar has urged law enforcement to take immediate action against the rising number of attacks targeting Hindu temples in the United States. Speaking to members of the Hindu community, Thanedar expressed concern over the lack of sufficient investigation and response from local authorities, exacerbating fear within the community. He recently introduced a resolution in the House of Representatives condemning anti-Hindu bigotry and intolerance, seeking support from Congress and the Biden administration.

Vijay Sadhawal echoed these concerns, highlighting the bias of American media towards the Hindu community and emphasizing the need for advocacy to protect minority rights. Drawing parallels to past injustices, such as the attacks on Kashmiri Pandits, Sadhawal emphasized the urgency of addressing discrimination and violence against Hindus.

The resolution serves as a starting point in raising awareness and advocating for the rights and safety of Hindu Americans. With increasing attacks on Hindu temples, it is essential for democratic institutions to take decisive action to ensure the protection of all minority communities in the United States.
