On April 28, 2024 several members of the Indian diaspora gathered at the iconic Times Square to express their anguish at the brutal killing of a Hindu girl Neha Hiremath by Fayaz on a university campus in Karnataka, India. Similar rallies were held at other places such as Lincoln Memorial, DC, Chicago, and Atlanta. All attendees expressed their deep concern about the pervasiveness of what is called ‘Love Jihad’ targeting Hindu girls and women across India.

The ultimate goal of the ecosystem is political conquest by preying on non-Muslim women (either eliminate them or co-opt them to produce more Muslims) using the ready supply of men who are subjected to religious indoctrination greatly reinforced by Madrasa education. Love Jihad, Human Trafficking, and Narcotics mafia are closely related.

Rally attendees expressed deep concern that brutality seen in the cases of Neha, Shraddha and several other young girls are not cases of isolated acts but a very well pre-planned, well-funded operation of what is termed as ‘Love Jihad’ perpetrated across the nation by a deeply entrenched ecosystem.
This is affecting girls of all religions where for example in Kerala, the clergy has publicly expressed several times how thousands of Christian girls are brainwashed and duped into marriage through ‘Love Jihad’ and ‘Narcotic Jihad’.

Outside India, similar incidents have been reported in the UK where grooming gangs belonging to a certain religion target minor girls and use them as sex tools.

While West suffers from political correctness, India suffers from apathy, systemic weakness and opportunistic politicians chasing vote banks. After Neha’s murder in Karnataka, India, the State Government callously dismissed it as a case of ‘love gone bad’ in spite of CCTV footage showing the extent of unspeakable brutality. This alone speaks volumes about the ground situation for the average Hindu woman in India.
