But "despite the national government's rejection of Hindutva (Hindu nationalism), a few state and local governments continued to be influenced by Hindutva," said the report released by secretary of state Hillary Clinton. "Despite government efforts to foster communal harmony, some extremists continued to view ineffective investigation and prosecution of attacks on religious minorities as a signal that they could commit such violence with impunity," the report said. There are active "anticonversion" laws in six of the 28 states: Gujarat, Orissa, Chhattisgarh, Arunachal Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh, and Himachal Pradesh, it noted. The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS), and other affiliated organizations (collectively known as the Sangh Parivar) publicly claimed to respect and tolerate other religious groups, the report said. "However, the RSS opposed coerced conversions from Hinduism and expressed the view that all citizens, regardless of their religious affiliation, should adhere to Hindu cultural values, which they claimed were the country's values." |

Perhaps Hindu Human rights organization should come up with a report bemoaining the bigotry, christian fundamentalism and racism of Americans.
The timing looks extremely suspicious. When the UPA govt is battling corruption, this report comes in handy to beat the opposition with. I think the Yanks invested heavily in this Sonia-MMS govt. There is a report which says that EVMs micro controller code is made in USA and imported by an Indian company.
Things look alarmingly suspicious.
Meanwhile, tapes of Barkha and Vir acting as power brokers are floating the net. Any insight into these?
