This article written by Meena Kanda Samy appeared in the Guardian on 20th October 2023. Meena is described as a poet and writer. She claims that Arundhati Roy, who faces charges in India for anti India speeches, is being hounded by the Indian State. The, ‘regime’ she claims, has done this to distract the public from its many failures. She also mentioned the recent raid on the offices of the News Click Web Portal. All Arundhati Roy does she says, is challenge hate mongering Hindutva ideology.
Arundhati Roy has for decades targeted Hinduism on national and international levels. She has compared the situation in India under BJP as, ‘worst than what happened in Ruanda’. In a lecture at University of Texas USA (April 2019) she said that the ideology of Aryan Supremacy which claims that some humans are God like and some are sub-human, polluted and untouchable is the basis of Brahminism, the Hindu caste system which operates even today.
According to Meena Kandasamy, the Indian regime is hounding Arundhati Roy now because the US and the West do not want to condemn India because of its position as a power that can check the Chinese.
For decades Arundhati Roy had spewed hate towards Hindus and no one has hounded her. However, there are rules that have to be followed and Arundhati will have to face the courts for any anti- national activities. Meena Kandasamy also gave an example of the recent raids by Enforcement Directorate’s on the News Click Web Portal as an example of the muzzling of the press in India.
News Clicks Editor Prabir Purkyasarth along with others have been arrested for receiving $4.6 million over a 3 years period from China via US. The New York Times also revealed this money transaction.
Let us now look at the background of Meena Kandasamy. She is passionate about the Hindu Caste system and wants to smash this Brahminical Patriarchy. According to her, she was molested while at University by a, ‘non Brahmin’ meaning someone from a Dalit Caste. She decided not to report the crime to the police because accusing someone presumably from Dalit Caste would have meant the she was, ‘ a Brahmin stooge’.
Such is the hatred of Hindus from Meena’s and Arundhati’s of the world.
Hindutva has no place for any Caste discrimination but driven by Christian evangelism, left wing ideology, and sheer dislike of the majority faith of India these people are prepared to fall to any depth. Hindus will and must counter these messengers of hate.
This has been emailed to Meena Kandasamy and the editor of the Guardian.
