New Delhi: Rashtriya Janata Dal MP Manoj Kumar Jha said there is war like situation in India against the minorities as the government of India is allegedly backing the hate-peddlers.

This document contextualizes the Indian situation based on Gregory H Stanton’s ‘ten stages of genocide, the report said.

Expressing the grave concern over the increasingly hate-fill atmosphere, Rajya Sabah MP Jha stressed the need of resisting the genocide.

He underlined the heinous backing of the government in spreading of hatred across the country. He called those who spread violence as “criminals”.

Speaking on the occasion, many speakers said the violence against minorities, especially on Muslims is escalated after right-wing Hindutva forces grabbed power, the report said.

“They enlisted the notorious mob-lynching incidents, imprisonment of educated youths in fabricated cases, communal riots, police firing, religious persecution and even social discrimination and exclusion is a part of a systematic and organised programme, which is called genocide. It is a planned mass- murder of one group by another,” the report mentioned.

When discussing the concept of genocide in India, Ashwan Sadiq P, the General Secretary of Campus Front of India, said how the “RSS uses hate speeches to achieve power and disseminate their toxic ideology”.

“The stages of genocide are unfolding simultaneously in our society,” human rights activist Kawalpreeth Kaur stated, as she blasted the “overwhelming justification and acceptance of Islamophobia” in India.
