Reports from human rights organizations and media outlets highlight that the persecution of minorities in India is not merely a series of isolated incidents but reflects a deeply rooted, systematic political and ideological trend.<\/p>\n<p>According to Kashmir Media Service, the Modi government is promoting extremism under the Hindutva ideology in a deliberate and organized manner, a report by the Indian web portal The Wire has revealed. The violence against Muslims and other minorities in India is not random but part of a larger political and ideological agenda. As per The Wire, Hindu extremist elements openly target impoverished Muslims with violence in the name of religion, while state institutions often remain silent, failing to intervene. Many leaders and activists affiliated with the BJP have been at the forefront of labeling Muslims as traitors or making hate-filled remarks.<\/p>\n<p>The Wire report also notes that the Modi government is using Hindutva-based politics as a diversion from its corruption and other serious misdeeds. Hindutva-inspired groups have been involved in financial scandals worth billions of rupees, relying on lies, deceit, and religious slogans to further their agenda. However, the pro-government media has failed to expose these facts to the public. The BJP is also accused of deflecting blame for attacks on Muslims, often accusing the victims themselves of provoking the violence.<\/p>\n<p>Experts argue that the ongoing state-backed violence against minorities in India is a direct violation of religious freedom, human rights, and democratic principles. This situation, they say, has become a growing source of concern not only within India but also on the international stage.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Islamabad: Human rights violations against minorities, particularly Muslims, continue to escalate under the patronage of the Modi government in India.
